Invitation to Tattooists

Dear tattooists,

We are very happy to invite you to participate in the Anti-Prison Tattoo and Body Modification Convention “Tinta Negra”.

We are organising the event to support anarchist, subversive and revolutionary prisoners. The idea is that all the funds raised will go to the prisoners and their solidarity structures.

We plan to have 20 tattooists each day, who will be able to work in different rooms. One of these rooms will be just FLINTA*-.

In front of the corresponding rooms we will set up a reception, which will take care of the organisation of the appointments, in order to avoid too much hustle and bustle in the rooms themselves.

Appointments will always be arranged for the same day and at the latest for the first appointment of the following day, in order to give as many people as possible the opportunity to get an appointment.

We can provide various materials, but we ask that you bring your own machines, disposable needles and grips, ink, power supplies and soap bottles (to reduce plastic consumption a little) and it would help us a lot if you could bring your own lamps and armrests, as there are many individual requirements in this respect.

We will provide:

  • chairs
  • tables
  • beds
  • skin and surface disinfectant
  • gloves
  • soap
  • vaseline
  • extension cord
  • distilled water
  • small and large paper rolls
  • clip cords covers and bottle covers
  • foil
  • razor
  • tongue depressor
  • waste container / waste bags
  • ink cups
  • scissors
  • pens and pencils
  • 1 Wifi Printer
  • 1 stencil thermocopy machine
  • 1 light table
  • stencil paper
  • stencil paper for thermocopy machine

In case of the need for other materials, feel free to contact us and add to the list.

We would charge per hour for the tattoos and we would take 100 for the first hour, 70 for each following hour. And on the other hand in case you want to do Flash Tattoos we ask you to consider pricing a little below the average commercial price.

The tattoo time frame of the event is the next one, so you can tell us which day or days you want to participate, and for how long. So we can build the schedule:

Friday 13th——12 pm to 22pm

Saturday 14th—10 am to 22 pm

Sunday 15th—–10 am to 18 pm

 

Questions or comments? We would be happy to hear from you! Please email us at tintanegra_tattoo[at]riseup.net with the title “Tattooers” so we can organise the incoming emails better.

If you need somewhere to sleep, we can help you! Please let us know your dates and length of your stay.

In solidarity

Tinta Negra
