Naz Elite Tattoo Project BENEATH THE SURFACE If you’re reading this you know we’re always putting up pictures on social media and trying to share our journey. Thanks for following along by the way! But have you ever noticed our tattoos? Runners, for whatever reason, seem to like getting tattoos and we’re no exception. And like most, each of our tattoos come with a story. So we thought it’d be cool to show you guys those tattoos, and tell you those stories, and maybe you’ll get to know a few things about us you didn’t know before. Enjoy! SCOTT SMITH Despite tattoos being an obvious outward expression I have generally considered them to be personal. In acknowledging this contradiction, I will explain the ink forever im- bedded in the skin of my left shoulder. When I left Flagstaff back in 2013 I wasn’t sure if I would ever return as a resident or professional runner. I wanted to commemorate this incredible place and how fortunate I was (and still am) to lead the life I did (and still do). Despite toying with the idea of having the cooks at Diablo Burger sear the letters “db” into me with the bun branding iron, I settled on a tattoo and left it up to the artist, who came up with some mountain peaks surrounded by aspen leaves. I am now fortu- nate enough to call Flagstaff home again for half of the year and I am still just as happy and proud to be a part of this community. And if I ever forget that or there comes a day where I am no longer calling Flagstaff at least partially home I have a constant remind- er (until I retire and get so out of shape I never take my shirt off) of my time spent here. GRAYSON MURPHY Starting in the summer of 2014, and then the next two consecutive summers following that, a bit of my wild side was shown. Born out of that period of my life came all three of my tattoos. My first tattoo, which can barely even be considered a tattoo, is a tiny heart on my finger. While this may seem a bit cliché this tattoo holds a lot of meaning to me. My best friend from high school gave me this tattoo, stick and poke style (this hurt, A LOT). The very next day I left to begin my adventure at Santa Clara Universi- ty, the school I was transferring to. This was the beginning of a huge shift in my life’s purpose but I didn’t know it yet, so it is in retrospect that this tattoo holds the most meaning. My second tattoo was born out of a love for Utah and all that I had there. Growing up in Salt Lake I had huge looming mountains in my backyard, and while they may be huge and magnificent they made me feel safe. Every time I flew home, the first thing I saw was mountains. It meant that I was home. So I decided to get them tattooed on me so I would always have a piece of home with me. To make this tattoo even sweeter my twin sister got a similar tattoo (essentially the same as mine just slightly different, just like us) and together we added the constellation Gemini. The Gemini constellation for twins added to the meaning of the mountains; now I will always have a connection to my best friend with me, no matter where I am in the world. My third tattoo has a similar meaning as the second. I got this tattoo with my twin sister as well—when we were in California moving me out of my apartment to come back to Utah. I was transferring again. While I absolutely loved Santa Clara, and my time there, my goals in life had drastically changed. As hard as it was to leave behind a place and friends that I loved I knew I had to do it. So, I got a tattoo of a wave on my wrist as a reminder of the ocean and California and the good times that I had there. SCOTT FAUBLE I have 3 tattoos. I got the first one kind of on a whim. It's a quote from a book called All The Pretty Horses that goes, "Scared money can't win, and a worried man can't love." I had liked that quote and thought about it ever since I read All The Pretty Horses a few years before. I had been thinking about getting it tattooed onto my body but didn't have a body part picked out, or a font, or an artist, which are all kind of important things to consider when getting a tattoo. It was the week after my college team had just gotten 3rd at NCAAs, which was a big deal because our program had never been on the podium before. In the race, with about 2k to go, I remember think- ing very distinctly, "scared money can't win" and charging after a group of people who had just accelerated away from me. When I got back to Portland, I just decided to go get that quote permanently adhered onto my left shoulder blade. I didn't consult anyone, or go with anyone, or make an appointment. I just kind of went in and did it. My second tattoo is an anchor on my foot. I got it right before I was going to leave Portland, so it was kind of an homage to the University of Portland, whose mascot is a tug boat pilot, and also kind of a reference to Portland as a city which does a lot of shipping along the Willamette and Columbia Rivers. I kind of got this one on a whim as well. My girlfriend and I were hanging out and decided that it would be fun to get tattoos together. Not matching ones, mind you, but we didn't have anything planned and it seemed like a fine way to spend a day. We drove around Portland until we found a place that did walk-ins. I just showed the artist a picture of the logo for Anchor Steam beer, which isn't my favorite beer, but does have my favorite bottle and beer logo. I was pretty worried about the pain associ- ated with getting a tattoo on my foot because, if you aren't familiar with how tattooing works, it's basically a needle attached to a motor that turns at an astonishing rate and injects ink into your skin. I've heard it described as feeling like a bee sting, which is not my experience. My feeling is that it felt like a motorized needle hitting your body very rapidly. So, anyways, I guessed that a foot, where the bones are so close to the skin would not be that great of a place to get a tattoo. Turns out, wasn't so bad. My third tattoo, has almost no significance other than the fact that I think wolves are very cool, because they are, and I think the Tetons are very pretty. So, I got a tattoo of a wolf running in front of the Tetons. It's on the inside of my left arm. This is the only tattoo that I got where I found an artist and made an appointment and put down a deposit and waited a while to get, which is pretty ironic because it's the least meaning- ful one to me. STEPHANIE BRUCE Eighteen-year-olds usually do a lot of things they regret later in life. I did one thing I won't regret. My father, James Rothstein, passed away during my senior year of high school in 2002. He had been diagnosed with prostate cancer 8 years earlier, and bat- tled if for most of those years. After he passed away I was at an age where I was dis- covering who I was, who I am, and who I would grow to be. I felt I grew up faster than normal because of the things my family experienced. The thought of a tattoo never entered my mind until that summer after my dad passed. I wanted a tangible memory of him. I wanted him to stay with me always. I didn't know how that was possible. My best friends and I drove to Mission Beach, California for the summer and I walked into a tattoo parlor with the image of a blue Prostate Cancer ribbon, inked in my mind. I was petrified. I don't get tattoos. But for some reason, I felt this small perma- nent symbol on my body would keep his memory alive. I chose my spine because I googled that it was one of the more painful spots and I thought it should hurt because he suffered so much during his battle with cancer. I'm an idiot. The tattoo artist barely got the ink symbol on me, and I passed out. I woke and asked, "is it done?" He said, "I just used a pen, haven't even started with the needle." So that's my story. Just below my hip line on my spine, lies a blue cancer ribbon that is symbolic for Prostate cancer and for my father James. I forget that many people don't know I have one, because it is often hidden under my running shorts and clothes. I don't know if I'll ever get another tattoo, but this one holds great meaning for me.

Meredith Kestel is dancing around to Kanye West’s “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” in a studio above the heart of Ames. She looks over her shoulder in the mirror at the tattoo stencil of a moon in purplish-black ink positioned on her upper-left back. “I love this so much and it’s not even permanently on my body!” “Yet,” her tattoo artist, Daniel Forrester, reminds her as he is preparing his tattooing equipment. Forrester is a resident tattoo artist and founder of InkBlot in Ames. He has been tattooing longer than Kestel has been walking and talking — approximately 20 years. This is not Kestel’s first tattoo, but this will be the first time five people will be watching and recording every second of her experience. As part of research for this story on tattoo trends, she agreed to get a tattoo based on popular tattoo design styles.

  • An Analysis of Tattoo Removal. Master of Arts
    LIVING WITH S(K)IN: AN ANALYSIS OF TATTOO REMOVAL Emily Downing, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2004 APPROVED: Brian Lain, Major Professor John M. Allison Jr., Committee Member Lori Byers, Committee Member John Gossett, Chair of the Department of Communication Studies Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Downing, Emily, Living with s(k)in: An analysis of tattoo removal. Master of Arts (Communication Studies), August 2004, 94 pp., references, 28 titles. This paper investigates the role of tattoo removal in postmodernity. Specifically, I suggest tattoo removal is a technology of self in which the tattooed person can attain absolution from a “sinful” tattoo. This paper explores the construction of the confessional act in two parts: the construction of the confessing subject and the construction of the medical clinic as the confessor’s listener. Using the texts medical offices place on the internet to advertise their services, I investigate the text’s interpellation of subjects desiring tattoo removal. I then examine the construction of the clinic’s status in the confessional act. Websites and brochures on gang tattoo removal provide a dialogue in which the clinic negotiates and attains its powerful position in the confessional act. The paper concludes by investigating the implications of the tattoo remnant, the material effects of the technology of self, and the benefits of studying the body-skin in rhetoric.

(September 11, 2017) –Ray Willis was in the middle of the sweltering Amazon rainforest earlier this year when a complete stranger took one look at the tattoo emblazoned on Willis’ right shoulder above the words, “Original Gangsta,” and said, “That’s John DeStefano.” Willis, a city employee who crowdsourced funding for the tattoo to commemorate the New Haven mayor’s record-breaking 20-year career, was shocked. A large photo of Willis’s tattoo is just one of the many quirky items that will be featured in “Old-School Ink: New Haven’s Tattoos,” an exhibition opening on September 23 at the New Haven Museum. From 2 to 6 p.m., the afternoon’s events will feature hands-on activities; temporary tattoos; professional photography of visitors and their tattoos, a storytelling booth with the New Haven Story Project, and a reception with the artists from 4 to 6 pm. The exhibit will remain on view through March 10, 2018. The free opening is being held by the Museum to mark Museum Day Live!, a national celebration sponsored each year by Smithsonian Magazine: http://www.smithsonianmag.com/museumday/museum-day-live-2017/. “Old School Ink” guest curator Elinor Slomba enlisted New Haven photojournalist Corey Hudson in her examination of why and where locals get tattoos, and how the industry, public policy, and aesthetics surrounding the art of tattooing have evolved over time.

  • Written in the Flesh: the Transformational Magic of the Tattoo
    Figure 1 “Untitled”, June 2007, Hannah Starkey, Photographs 1997-2017/Courtesy of Mack Written in the Flesh The Transformational Magic of the Tattoo Joan Golden-Alexis To tattoo one’s body is merely one of the thousand ways of conjugating the verb ‘to be’ that fundamental concept of our metaphysics—Michael Thévos What lies deepest of all in man, is the skin—Paul Valery In this paper I am going to approach the subject of the tattoo and the process of tattooing from two perspectives; the socio-political, and the personal. Ultimately, on the most intimate level, in the realm of the personal, I will explore the psychic process of six people who have chosen to tattoo their bodies. I began my introduction to those who seek tattoos, and particularly the six people in this study, by spending one day each week in various tattoo studios. I listened, and listened, and never spoke. I soon discovered that the relationship between the tattoo artist and the person seeking a tattoo was often exquisitely intimate. The tattoo artist began the conversation by simply asking, “What kind of tattoo do you want?” Within seconds, a breathtaking story would unfold, transforming the moment from the present into something that held something old, and the beginning of something new. The artist would then excuse himself to sketch the tattoo. I marveled time and time, again, at how the artist could fathom so much, with so little information to go on. I never interfered in the dialogue between artist and client; I just listened. After some time, I began to get a feel for those artists and those clients that touched something in me.
