I was fascinated by Nathan Singleton’s selection of quote and symbolic tattoos. The quote on his lower abs is “the act of love is a confession,” from Albert Camus’ The Fall. On his left arm, “when we love, a sap older than time rises through our arms,” by poet, Rainer Maria Rilke. Not shown, his f-hole tattoos on each tricep to match the ones on his guitar.
Nathan Singleton and The Sideshow Tragedy are playing August 19th at Guero’s, regularly at Momo’s, and will be going on a tour starting in October.
If you’d like to be featured in my Tattoo Portrait Project, or know someone who should be, please contact me.
