| Abstract |
| The purpose of this study is to find a chance to change viewpoints and awareness of tattoos through makeup as images of ugliness that have stood out and spread gradually since the end of the last century. For the purpose, this paper sought to define tattoo makeup which is used as a means of artistic expression of makeup expressed in modern fashion, and to examine its meaning.
In this study concepts, expression techniques, and meaning of tattoos were considered to examine the ugliness images from aesthetic perspectives of tattoos. Then, based on the consideration, a definition of tattoo makeup was established. To make out the images of ugliness in tattoo makeup, concepts of a lack of structure, incorrectness, and deformity were borrowed from the Aesthetics of Ugliness proposed by Karl Rosenkranz, and they were coded. Based on the coded meaning, aesthetic characteristics of tattoo makeup were inferred as beauty of formlessness, beauty of imperfection, and beauty of heterogeneity.
Given the above-stated findings, tattoo makeup is a makeup technique, which provides a chance to develop makeup into independent formative arts in the age of individuality and diversity. It is considered that it will provide infinite ideas and contribute to valuing tattoos itself as a genre of arts. |
