White Walls Project Space Presents Blood & Ink by Justin Kerson

Created with the belief that art is all around us, Justin Kerson’s latest twisted and morbid series of work titled “Blood & Ink” uses cotton and linen to capture the blood and ink of freshly done tattoos. Through blood and ink, Kerson wanted to emphasize that, in art, the process and concept are just as important as the end aesthetic results. He explains, “much like the shroud of turin preserved Jesus immortally” he has immortalized the art of tattooing through his linen archivable Blood & Ink prints, which have a shelf life that far surpasses that of a single lifetime.
