Samson: "my tattoos are all free hand and its created for each individual i think of my self as a contemporary artist using our island desighns in
a new way to give a real modern feel , its like sayin we still hold on too our old cultural deco but we have evolved as a people and our art , new style art reflects our ways to progress to keep making new and more innovated ways to look
at the art our anscestors left us. i believe that our kupuna our elders would be proud to see how we progressed over the years. and many of the tattoos are personal to each person so i cannot freely explain in detail what it means to each
person i gave them the gift of art and also gave them the responsibilty if they feel like sharing it with otheres how i use desighns to help tell there story and give them a stronger sense of pride. so i hope u
understand that our
tatau isnt just an open book, it keeps the mystery alive in our tradition and our modern way of life and thinking.
mahalo nui loa for your time, i appreciate it strongly
ur friend samson.
