    Ive wanted a flower of life tattoo for 10+ years now. I'm happy to hear people are specializing in sacred geometry tattoos now. Maybe I didn't look hard enough but 10 years ago, when I looked i couldn't find anybody specializing in it.

    It’s definitely become trendy but I feel like people are less likely to cringe at them in a few years. I can see maybe mandalas becoming a little played out but I feel like things are going to continue to develop in that direction. Portraits in a geometric style with emphasis on open space and symmetry and shapes combining abstractly to create readable images. It’s just a new style

    Sacred Geometry is a budding new religion. It's roots go back to ancient Mesopotamia and ancient Egypt. The likes of Euclid and Pythagoras continued this esoteric knowledge. It was all but forgotten during the Roman era and Dark Ages. The Renaissance revived it through Da Vinci and Fibonacci, inspiring scientist like Newton. Now, like Tesla, the revival is much stronger and information is more widespread.

      TomasTomas in the UK is one of the best. Definitely be prepared to spend decent money, as geometric tattoos are very unforgiving. Bear in mind even the best tattoo will blur as you age, dotwork (instead of all linework) or larger designs have a better chance.
      If you want something a bit more widely available (although still find a decent artist) try mendhi or simpler mandala style, not geometric but similar style.
      Search Instagram and Pinterest for tattoos you like, either track down those artists or find an artist who does geometric or intricate black work or dotwork tattoos who you trust or are recommended, and ask them to be honest with you about whether they can create the tattoo you want.
      Good luck!

    These tattoos take precision like they said one small mistake can ruin the entire piece. I don't know if it's a trend as much as it is just new.....once skilled artists demonstrated the possibility of the style others took notice. I don't think there are too many people out there getting these tattoos because they want to fit in and be trendy I think that it's because they find them beautiful. These tattoos are a tedious task that require confidence and know how. I'd like to see the style blended with other tattoo styles such as traditional or hyper realism.

      Joseph Brown I’ll *try* to remember to come back here in ~six months to post some of the work I’m receiving. I’ve been working on a whole mural and it’s finally starting to come together. It will be blending realism (not hyper, but oil paint realism effect) with torus, shipibo, mandala work. It’s been 2.5 years already; so far I have a large raven and raven scull, a serpent, and just laid down another phase (this past Monday) of line work for the upper back, shoulders, and neck for the shipibo (aya, DMT, consciousness) and torus field... really happy with how it’s all coming together.

    Fuddy-duddy here: I cannot think of any type of image or language that I would want irreversibly inked anywhere on my body.

      @JohnNrkZe 6 років тому +4

      The reason why it is not a trend is because the definition and lifespan of the word "trend" is limited. A trend therefore is not timeless. On the flip side, geometry is an element found in all aspects of life as mentioned in the video and has influenced and will influence the way we perceive the world forever. Therefore geometric tattoos are not a trend, merely because they have existed in ancient civilizations for years before they surfaced into mass media. Just because more people are finding out about them and discovering more regarding this form of art does not mean it's a trend.
