Few technological devices can compare to the TV that changed history. All things considered, one can roughly divide time into two camps: Before Television and After Television.
And in terms of pop art, it certainly doesn’t hurt that TVs come in every color, style, and era-specific design imaginable.
Is it any wonder that there are entire museums dedicated to television sets?
A TV tattoo runs the full gamut from classic to modern, with many correlating meanings and references. You yourself may be a bit like Mike Teevee, addicted to television like the infamous Willy Wonka character, so it’s natural that you’d want to fulfill your carnal obsession. Perhaps you’re drawn to the space-age designs of televisions from the 1950s and 1960s, and a similar tattoo would compliment your classic aesthetic.
TV is society’s first window into the wider world, a previously unimaginable introduction to many trends, events and figures. Families have allocated specific times to gather around the television, and even now we enjoy evenings at home curled up in front of the screen. A TV tattoo recognizes a moment in 20th century history that turned the tables and brought to the fore a device that would become an essential aspect of modern life.
