An exhibition which brings together some of Australia’s most refined tattoo artisans  including: Geordie Cole, William Yoneyama, Wade Johnston, Biee SaeTang, Zach Hart, Nicole Drager, Mel Williams, Tashi M Dukanovic, Dean Sacred, Caleb Walmsley, Teniele Sadd, Tebi el Camaron and Hal Cheshire.

In Dispelling All Myths these artists look at the legends and myths that exist around the world of the tattooist. From stigmas to a history surrounded by taboos, the tattooers craft has always been one shrouded in darkness. This group exhibition gives the viewer a window into the fine art practice of these talented artisans.
