People attending Tat2 2011 can be prepared for a wide variety of visual feasts with a line up that includes Rubberboy’s performance, Best male and female
tattoo competition, and the first of its kind in
Asia – Miss
tattoo Asia, alongside with over 300 internationally regarded artists coming together to showcase their talent in full view of audiences who are fans or just mere curious. This is the place to be if you are an avid
tattoo collector or people who are interested to see what
tattoo today is all about, a culture that used to be taboo but is so widely welcomed in recent times.
The newest addition to this coming year’s show is the Miss
tattoo Asia segment. Probably the first of its kind, it attempts to open the minds of the general public that beauty comes in all forms, especially in recent times where people are exposed to so many different things and the form of beauty is somewhat subjective. Trying to break away from the stereotypical female beauty, it aims to address a form of liberalism and modernist way of perceiving
'beauty'.
Apart from this unique beauty contest, there is also the best male and female
tattoo competition where proud owners of
"beautiful masterpieces" on their bodies get to flaunt and compete to stand a chance to win the top prize. You’d be surprised to see how realistic and beautiful a
tattoo can get, as the standard and works of
"tattoo artists" are getting better and better, especially with quite a handful of
artists who already have a history of doing fine arts before they ventured into tattooing. The message of this show to entertain is made evident with
other programmes such as the Rubberboy, who has three
Guinness World Records for being the most flexible man alive.
Daniel Browning Smith, who is also known as the Rubberboy, is an actor, entertainer and contortionist who also went on shows such as Ripley’s Believe it or not, the Oprah Winfrey show and the grand prize winner of 30 Seconds to Fame. Works by finalists of Beauty is Skin Deep, a body art
design competition, will also be displayed in the art gallery section as well as works of graffiti artists and some of the
tattoo artists’ works, showcasing their talents and passion on canvas.
