Ben Volt is based out of San Francisco, at Scholar Tattoo. He does blackwork in a way that has been described as modern and unique. Despite the heavy lines and strict geometry of his work, it is dynamic, the contrast between the precision of his work and the curves of the human body leaving a surreal impression on the viewer, as though the ink is hovering over the body.
Some of Ben Volt’s work reminds one of Art Deco, and some of it reminds the nineties children among us of Samurai Jack and its distinctive animation style. Whatever the association, the work is compelling. Its hard to look away.
