Intern Project – Tattoos At Work

.

Dating back to Neolithic times, tattoos have always been used to express individuals’ thoughts and identities. We explored the Ogilvy Joburg campus to discover some of the inked stories hidden underneath the outfits.

There are many reasons why people get tattoos. For some, tattoos serve as a constant reminder of a lost loved one and what they stood for, believed in and meant to the inked person’s life.

Then there are those whose tattoos reflect their philosophies, what they stand for and what life means to them – allowing them to literally wear their identity on their sleeve.

When it comes to getting inked, language holds no boundaries. People have tattoos encrypted in Chinese, Arabic and Greek.
