Have you ever walked by a building and said to yourself, rad dark shit is happening behind those doors? This was the case when I used to walk by Last Rites Tattoos in it’s old location in the Lower Eastside. I could tell that this shop created the kind of skin art that people would travel far and wide to get inked on their bodies. Paul Booth, the owner and head artist, seems like a person that is dedicated to making people’s nightmares a reality, so that we can all see the beauty in those dark fantasies. His work is pure evil, but it still has a sense of humanity that draws you in. Paul fit well into the fabric of the LES, and you could tell he was down for the community. Today CVLT Nation would like to celebrate Booth as a tattoo artist, but also as a fine artist – his work will speak for itself!
