It is true that Japanese tattoos associated with the yakuza are still considered narrow-minded and anti-social. However, if you take a closer look at the intricate carvings, you will find that the depictions are based on aesthetics inherited from Japan and China, such as Suikoden, dragons, and even carp climbing waterfalls, and can be said to be carvings made on the body. It is beautiful as it should be.
Mr. Sudo's photographs, taken both in the studio and outdoors, are created by Mr. Sudo, who faces people with full-body tattoos who are obsessed with tattoos and have changed their lives, even though they usually live as ordinary citizens. A book that conveys your sense of beauty.
