The practice of modifying one’s body by marking it has been present from ancient times. And
the evidences of tattoo practice are scattered worldwide. Here the question arise what made
people think of marking their body? Tattoo in many indigenous community is a part of their
culture and it is done on men, women and sometimes on the children too, but they signify a
different meaning to the different members of the society. Tattoo is often associated with
spirituality, power, and gender. Therefore, to trace back the necessity of marking the body
could be possibly for gaining control over something through a symbol that is tattoo and it is
done on the body as body is the only thing that we own, therefore the marks that are
tattooed in the body is the symbol of owning something. In tribal community tattoos are
done after puberty as the symbol of being sexually matured or sometime after achieving
some certain ranks in the society in case of men, and often married women are marked by
tattoo as a symbol of marriage.
It is difficult to understand why people would choose to have ink injected under their skin as
this means taking themselves a mark that will last longer they remains on this earth. There
can be multiple constructions and of them, very common preconception focuses on abnormal
characteristics associated with tattooed people, even, historically in many places of the
world, “tattoos” were regarded as sign of social marginalization for the lower socio-economic
groups as well as for marking criminals. But with the large prevalence that has taken place
over the last 20-30 years, it has become main-stream, particularly among young people to
present and express their self. Over time it has crossed continents, cut across the class and
gender lines, flowed between high and low cultural milieus. Though there are many scholarly
articles on tattoo have been found concentrating on American and European context but
there is a paucity of documentation from India. Present exploratory research is an attempt to
understand motivational dimensions from the lived experiences of the tattooed people in the
metropolitan city Kolkata. A qualitative approach was adopted using in-depth interviews.
Overall evidences suggested that there are many perceptions prompted people to have
“tattoo” ranges from art, individuality, spirituality, memories to affection, fashion, scar hiding,
idealizing someone and sometimes even influenced from social media.
