Tattoos
I have always created, be it drawing, writing, music. But one of my first pieces where I truly felt I had just made Art was a tattoo. I had set out to use my skills and create an endless tattoo. A tattoo with no end and no beginning. A tattoo where the conception of the tattoo itself, became the end product. A photograph that shows the process full circle. Finding my inner artist led me away from tattooing. I felt the need to reconnect with my old love, music and video. And even venture into new creative paths like Graffiti, Poetry slams and stand-up comedy. I wanted to explore my new found artistry. And I did. All this lead to beautiful things such as cool art-projects, my own STUDIO3030, my music crew V.I.E.S. and a line of autonomous metal art pieces. And now, like the piece that started it all, I’m back at the beginning. Knowing now, my gift is dedication, not to one craft, but to creation. I strive not to be a musician, a poet, director, producer, frontman and so on. I strive to be me, Riceau, and I happen to Tattoo.
