What if a tattoo could carry more than a memory — what if it held a piece of someone you loved? In this episode, we sit down with artist Kerri Parnell, who’s redefining the meaning of memorial art through her deeply personal cremation tattoos.
These aren’t your average tattoos. Kerri blends a trace of a loved one’s ashes into the ink — creating designs that are both beautiful and intimate. But how did she start doing this? What does it mean for those who choose to carry their loved one in this way? And what are the emotions, ethics, and stories behind this growing practice?
Join us as we explore the art, the science, and the soul of remembrance through ink — and discover why people around the world are turning to Kerri to help them keep their connections alive, one tattoo at a time.
