I am trying to plan a trip to New Zealand and would love to get a tattoo done in the traditional method of the Maori. I have always had admiration and respect for traditional methods of tattooing and would like to base my travels around getting them. I know the stigma attached to Ta Moko tattoos and would never dream of getting anything other than an original Kirituhi design done by a knowledgeable artist. So my question is does anyone know any artists that do Kirituhi in the traditional method with "chisel" and mallet? I found George Nuku but not much contact info so I figured I would ask on here. Thanks in advance.
Kirituhi, traditional method
