Minimalism in a tattoo
Contents:
If we consider minimalism from the point of view of art, then this style is constantly discovering new forms. This direction is actively supported by creative people who are in constant search and are ready to realize their full potential at the first opportunity.
In our time of postmodernism, notes of minimalism are especially felt, which are reflected in various fields of activity. Not without his penetration into the art of tattooing on the body.
Until recently, voluminous tattoos, which covered a significant part of the body, were very popular. Along with this trend, today you can see another progressive genre - the minimalism of tattoo. The classic large images are slowly left behind, and small drawings come to the fore, which may consist of just a few lines.
The fashion for small tattoos is due to the fact that most of those who want to have a tattoo on their body do not dare to select a large area of skin on their body for this. They may be intimidated by the excessive attention that will be attracted from others. Tattoos in minimalism allow each person to apply a small picture anywhere on the body, which will look like a small decoration that can be covered with a lock of hair or clothes.
On the Internet, you can find many sketches of images in a similar genre. An experienced craftsman with a good imagination can easily give any picture the features of minimalism. In this case, the converted image will retain its original meaning, but at the same time it will look completely different.
A tattoo in the style of minimalism attracts attention not by the excess of lines and the presence of complex patterns, but by the fact that it contains an original idea, which is made due to play of lines with the use of peculiar graphics... Thus, the tattoo artist has the opportunity to emphasize the beauty of the tattoo, without distracting thoughts to its graphic content.
Working in this genre, a master must have a subtlety of taste, which will allow him to create memorable and effective images using a minimum number of lines. At first glance, it may seem that a small piece of work done with several lines cannot carry any meaning. However, wearable designs in this direction are characterized by a certain mystery. Each person endows a minimalist tattoo with their own sacred meaning.
Main Features of Style
The basis of tattoos in this direction are geometric elements and monochrome. In the images, you can very often see:
- various lines;
- vectors;
- circles;
- triangles;
- miniature pictures.
The inscriptions are very popular, which can carry little information of a philosophical nature.
As a rule, a variety of colors are not used here and preference is given to dark tones. Often, masters are limited to three colors, or sketches are used in black and white. Images can be placed on any part of the body and are often made in small and sometimes very tiny sizes.
However, this does not mean that only small images are characteristic of the minimalism direction. Sometimes the picture can be stuffed all over the back. The main role here is played not by how much space the tattoo will take on the body, but by the fact that the minimum number of images and complex elements will be used for this.
