Tell us about the tattoo: why this image/text specifically? what does it mean to you personally? why did you pick this specific design?
I always wanted a Suede tattoo but had a lot of trouble choosing the right lyrics. One day, I got a photography book about David Sylvian – my other musical love – and when I saw this photo... it just clicked! The way David is walking towards the light fits so well with the "Life Is Golden" line. I decided to combine my two biggest musical loves in an image of hope.
Where did you get your tattoo done (studio and/or artist)?
DP studio, Tel Aviv, Israel
Do you have any plans for more Suede related tattoos and if so, what are they?
No. I do have a Smiths one, two Depeche Mode ones, and one of an Israeli band that I love. I’ll definitely get more Suede ones – but it needs to “click” – the right idea at the right time.
