It should as no surprise to learn that plant tattoos generally symbolize concepts regarding growth, renewal, resilience, and one’s connection to nature. That being said, they can also represent specific meanings depending on the type of plant. For instance, ferns (a popular plant tattoo) are associated with sincerity, humility, and magic in various cultures, while the aloe plant is directly associated with healing and protection. Meanwhile, the monstera plant (sometimes referred to as the “Swiss cheese plant”) is known to represent longevity, respect, honor, abundance. prosperity, and good fortune. Plant tattoos are also often requested by those who have a special connection to a geographic destination (forest or tropical island region) where a given plant is endemic to, or frequently found within, said destination. Ultimately, plant tattoos are a way to express personal values, personality, commemorate experiences, and connect with nature in a growingly densified planet.
A successful plant tattoo is dependent upon the talent of a tattooist, but also their passion for the organic subject matter. And while it can certainly be done in vivid color, most requests for plant tattoos are for blackwork / black & grey works of body art. This is where Adrenaline Studios’ shop in the vibrant community of Kitsilano, Vancouver BC, comes in (get directions here). Our West 4th Avenue studio is home to Olya, a very talented artist has produced a number of very impressive pieces that align with what you’re looking for.
