Today we’re going to be taking a look at the works of Michael Kozlenko, one of the many talented artists from Kipod Tattoo and Piercing in Tel Aviv. We’ve featured works from Michael before, as well as other artists from Kipod. Over the course of today you’ll be able to see a small preview of some of the many works that can be found in the Kipod Tattoo Portfolio.
The next tattoo(s) we’re going to take a look at are a pair of matching thigh pieces that depict the famous scene from Le Voyage dans la lune, the 1908 sci-fi film directed by Georges Méliès.
Even if you’ve never seen the film, the image of the rocket in the eye of the moon is such an iconic shot that many people recognize it without knowledge of the film. You’ll notice that even though the images are similar, Michael made each tattoo unique for the individual owner.
BME/News and Modblog highlight only a small fraction of what
Sadly I think a lot more people recognize it from the Smashing Pumpkin’s video for “Tonight, Tonight” which was built with many images from “Le Voyage Dans la Lune.”
It reminds me of the moon from Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask
1902 fyi
And now I can say I’ve seen my first silent film
Does “Le Voyage Dans la Lune” mean The Voyage in the Moon?
Greta, “A Trip to the Moon”
You can actually watch the movie on youtube. It is amazing.
