    as. %I(m not comfortable ith the a"

    tattooing is treated like a commodit" or

    an object $ rather than a creative process.

    What(s helped me push past that is putting

    Whether it(s religious iconograph" or a

    design in the Lorider aesthetic, it(s

    incredibl" important to Jun that the tattoo

    makes sense. What he puts on to his

    client(s skin has to have the right meaning

    for that person. %It(s crucial to m" creative

    process that I understand the narrative of

    In this era of tattoo st#les and specialisations,

    it(s ineitable that an artist like Jun !ill be

    pigeonholed !ith a conenient label, but that

    is not something that he is happ# about.

    &When people use that !ord style, the# seem

    to just casuall# thro! it around. I realise that

    people are simpl# tr#ing to categorise a isual

    representation, but !hen I(m !orking that(s

    the last thing I(m thinking about. I(m not

    creating a st#le and I(m not consciousl#

    deciding to !ork in a certain !a#. I(m just

    tr#ing to do the best job I can. Of course, oer

    time, m# touch has emerged as something

    recognisable. People tr# to slap on a label, but

    I !ant to end up in a place !ere there is no

    st#le. With preconceied notions, #ou(e

    alread# bo"ed #ourself in.' Like most artists,

    Jun feels that #ou can end up thinking too

    much.

    Whilst learning to tattoo, Jun decided that he

    needed to go to back to school to formall#

    stud# art and design. This, ho!eer, led to an

    interesting epiphan#. &It !as onl# b# goingthrough all that stud#ing % fine art, product

    design, adertising % that I realised I needed to

    let go of eer#thing, so that m# !ork could

    come from a place that !as reall# the ra!

    source of creatiit#. Education is a structured

    !a# for #our mind to learn and gro!, but at

    the same time it is being conditioned. I had to

    go through that to discoer the ne"t step.'

    Jun finds creatie freedom in e"ploring

    different artistic disciplines and tr#ing to find

    the right balance bet!een them. &When #ou

    are tattooing, there are so man# realities in

    pla#. Its not just art, it(s also a surgical process,and of course it(s collaboratie too. I !ork

    er# differentl# !hen I(m alone !ith just a

    canas in front of me. With painting, it(s all #ou

    and this gu# up here [he taps his head]. It(s

    more personal, but the source of the creatie

    drie is still the same. The painting, the

    tattooing, the design !ork % the# all feed each

    other.'

    There%s a calmness about Jun that I%m sure his customers find ver!

    reassuring. I ask him about his emotional state hen he is

    tattooing. He tells me, #I%m starting to recognise more of a Zen

    approach to m! creative ork. There is a sense of selflessnesshen !ou%re engaging in an activit! such as this. The more I let go

    hen I%m tattooing or painting, the better the results. I%m in the

    moment; I%m not thinking about the tent! million things that

    don%t matter. Once I have begun to tattoo or paint, I am free. I

    think being in a neutral state is reall! important hen !ou are

    orking. You can%t have !our emotions contaminating hat !ou

    are doing.$

    Thankfull!, there ill ala!s be ne blood coming

    into tattooing that ill look to the lessons of the

    past to provide a stable foundation for the future

    # lessons that can onl! be learned through

    discpline, and through focusing on activit! not

    results. Talking ith Jun has reaffirmed this for me.

    And, even though hat e&ve been able to includehere is onl! a fraction of our conversation, I hope

    hat comes across is Jun&s love for this great

    artform and his desire for it to be recognised as

    just that. $I see tattooing as a beautiful jeel. It

    needs to be seen in the same light as other

    creative forms # painting, design, architecture. As

    an art, and as a discipline, it needs to be taken

    seriousl!.% I don&t think !ou can sa! it an! more

    clearl! than that.

    president Mohammed Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood and its

    supporters are dominating the political and economic scene and

    Ste!art has recentl# finished a stunning Fudo M#oo bod# front. I !as interested to kno! ho!

    it felt to !ork on, and eentuall# complete, a large piece such as this. When Ste!art tells me

    it(s &a string of small ictories leading to eentual disappointment' !e both erupt into

    laughter. &Seriousl# though', he continues, &as a tattooist I see each section in stages. First I

    plan the si$e. Then I find the appropriate design reference and I make small adjustments to getit to fit perfectl#. That(s one small ictor#. Then I place it on to the bod# and put the line in,

    making more adjustments if I need to. That(s another small ictor#. Then I moe on to the

    ne"t stage. And so it goes. It(s neer going to feel perfect to me % because it !as started so

    long ago and during that time I hae gro!n as a person and as a craftsman. But, because it(s

    required so much attention, the feeling is about as close as I can get to being satisfied.'

    OPINION

    Whenever I"m sitting listening to my older

    friends in tattooing talk about the good ol"

    days" the old times, when tattooing was

    underground, and had a little more mystery about it

    I can"t help wishing that I"d been there. And this is

    partly due to the changing attitudes and behaviours of

    people outside tattooing. Years ago, people tried not to

    get in the way of someone who was heavily tattooed;now, they"ll come up to you and tell you all about their

    next idea for a tattoo, in memory of their grandma"s

    friend"s next door neighbour"s dog. I"m obviously

    talking about my own experiences here, but I"ll bet

    they mirror some of yours!

    Have you seen any changes in the tattoo industry that concern you?

    I guess the main thing that bugs me is that there are so man" tattooers out there no, doing bad

    tattoos out of their homes or garages. The" are destro"ing skin and the" are also destro"ing the

    integrit" of this industr" that I love so much. That's a shame. I kno I am "oung and part of the

    neer ave of tattoo artists, but I feel like there are just too man" people out there doing it for

    the rong reasons.

    Do you have any advice for young tattooers?

    Get into a shop and learn the right a" to tattoo. A traditional apprenticeship is the best a" to

    learn ho to tattoo ell and in a safe, sterile a". Dra ever" da", take some art classes to

    e!pand "our artistic abilities, and sta" open minded. Be illing to learn and ork reall", reall"

    hard.
