Taking shape as a blooming, gigantic flower, Charlotte, in BLOOMING INK, has faced extreme shyness and social anxiety for her entire life, causing her to withdraw and keep mostly to herself. Fascinated by the beauty of tattoos, she had the idea of covering her entire body in ink. Her bodysuit is a complete piece of art, designed by a tattoo artist in London to cover her whole body in intricate patterns, executed in about a year of hard-core needling and pain. Her tattoos changed her life. Charlotte says that through the drawings on her body, she became the person she was always meant to be; an outspoken, artistic, and outgoing young woman. As her skin changed, so did her personality, and her life. Through her tattoos, she bloomed into existence and became the exuberant flower she was always meant to me.
