The Tattooed Tailor is a mixed media installation integrating conceptual art, sculpture and fashion It is a work that traces and explores some universal themes relating to immigrants and the garment industry. Piecing together memories, it is a highly layered artwork, a montage of experiences symbolising a human journey – how our own dreams and other people’s perceptions change who we are.
