Museum of Contemporary Tattoos
Open Call for Artists – 2025/2026 Inaugural Program
The Museum of Contemporary Tattoos invites tattoo artists from all backgrounds to take part in a historic and experimental exhibition that lives in augmented reality and on the blockchain.
Our first monument — a glowing AR cube — is permanently installed in Lustgarten, Berlin. One artist is featured at a time, day by day, forming a continuous exhibition in public space. The cube is visible through the museum app on location.
Who We're Inviting
- Tattoo artists who approach their work as art, not service
- Artists who believe tattoos can hold memory, presence, or meaning
- No prior experience with digital tools or blockchain is required
What You'll Be Part Of
- Your work presented in the museum’s AR monument in Berlin
- Feature on the museum’s website and social channels
- Opportunity to have your work archived as an NFT, supported by the museum’s smart contract (optional)
- Participation in an international, ongoing collection of tattoo-based art
- Artist fees — pending public funding, communicated transparently with selected participants
How to Apply
We accept submissions on a rolling basis. The first selected artists will be announced in September 2025.
