The tattoo artist realized that his works transcended death: they took off the skin and created 4 paintings | Society

Chris is distinguished in his home town for being a great artist and one of the best tattoo artists in the Electric Underground Tattoo Company. According to the Canadian CBC media, Wenzel died on October 28 at the age of 41, suffering from an intestinal problem that could not be treated on time.

"He always thought he was wasting his time getting a tattoo if the final product went with him to the grave." He said he would prefer to see the works of art exhibited for others. ", the widow said the above. Cheryl was looking for someone to respond to this request; went to find Save my Ink Forever.

The company has charged an amount equivalent to 40 million Chilean pesos for work. Half of this money was collected via campaigns via social networks.

The owner of the pioneer company in tattoo conservation after his death, Kyle Sherwood, went to Canada and was extracted the skin from Wenzel's torso, arms and legs to take her to the United States and continue the work.

The next phase was to add chemical compounds to maintain the condition of the skin. Finally, Cheryl Wenzel received her husband's tattoos framed in sunglbades to protect against ultraviolet rays, to prevent them from being damaged by sun exposure. In total, the woman received four paintings.

The idea of ​​Cheryl is to be able to exhibit this work in different cities of Canada and the United States, but she believes that the final location of these paintings is in the study that she founded with her husband.
