In Part 1 of Episode 11, we speak with Daniel Feinberg, a tattoo artist specialising in the Japanese tattoo tradition. We discuss his history in graphic design and commercial architectural visualisation and the major shift in leaving it all behind to becoming a niche tattoo artist. We delve into his process of transitioning, and the support that enabled him to pursue his career. Dan elaborates on the journey in learning all there is to know about Japenese Tattooing as well as the importance of understanding the philosophy and meaning behind the imagery. We touch on finding common ground, learning from your peers and growing in confidence in your practice. Dan elaborates on the barriers within tattoo traditions and that sharing is not always caring.
