Went to Oz this year, hadn't been for ages! I had a sneaker related job in Melbourne and added a few days to catch up with friends in Sydney and see a bit of Melbourne. Did a story for Tatowier as well on Shell Valentine, a tattooer working out of Dangerzone tattoo, who is a purveyor of super kawaii tattoos.
Kawaii culture in the west is often co-opted with already existent subcultures, and her interview is a mix of her feminist beliefs, body positivity, PMA and all things sweet.
Had a really, really nice time hanging out, getting inked and dossing around this fantastic city.
PS It is in the December issue if you happen to be in Germany, Switzerland or Austria, check it out!
