Large bodies.
Moving water.
Neo-Oriental takes the vocabulary of traditional Japanese tattooing (koi, hannya, serpents, waves and blossoms) and rebuilds it with contemporary color and flow.
These are body-scale compositions. Backs, sleeves and legs are planned as one continuous current, so the piece moves with the anatomy instead of sitting on top of it.
