think.kera.org 9

It wasn’t too long ago that tattoos were considered edgy, even anti-social. But modern-day bodies feature imprints of daisies and butterflies alongside those skulls and daggers. Filmmaker Alan Govenar joins host Krys Boyd to talk about the history of tattooing, from Biblical times to today. His documentary “Tattoo Uprising” is a production of Frame of Mind and Art&Seek and airs on tonight at 10:30 p.m. on KERA-TV.
