057 - Leo Zulueta
Manage episode 454634068 series 2359068
The legendary king of tribal tattooing, Leo Zulueta, was tricked into becoming a tattooer by Ed Hardy. Is there another tattooer with an origin story as crazy as that?!
Leo talks about how the high contrast punk rock show posters he made in his younger years set the stage for the heavy black tribal tattoo style that he hugely brought into the visual vocabulary of western tattooing. Tattooing as we know it today would simply not be the same without Leo's contributions over his decades long career.
His influence and encouragement has been felt by many, and we also hear some anecdotes from Jared Leathers, Adam Shrewsbury and Julian Bast.
Leo's new book, The Black Wave, can be ordered now through:
Belzel Books (US)
Coenen Publishing (EU)
Sydney Tattoo Club (AUS)
