Mexico: La Catrina on the skin
Mexico has gifted global tattooing some of its most recognisable imagery, La Catrina and the flowered calaveras of Día de los Muertos, alongside a powerful Chicano black-and-grey tradition. Mexico City anchors the scene with vast conventions: the Mexico Tattoo Convention draws hundreds of artists and tens of thousands of visitors, while La Gran Tenochtitlán Tattoo Expo sets up near Bellas Artes in the historic centre. Pair a convention with a Day of the Dead visit and you…
