ABOUT THE DOCUMENTARY

BEHIND THE INK is a first-of-its-kind film put together by local Charlotte, NC students and creatives with the mission of exploring untold narratives of those who are inked.  This documentary was produced and shot entirely by Creating Exposure Through The Arts [a 501c3 non-profit organization] students and instructors. 

Born out of a student-led photo exhibit launched over a decade ago...BEHIND THE INK emerged.  This documentary explores tattoos, and what some may call “artistry and body art”.  It covers the “whys” of personal canvases straight from the source, while also capturing the journey of a young lady who receives her first tattoo.  There are men and women of all ages, different races, and socioeconomic backgrounds that reveal stories, ideas, joy, and pain behind their ink. From a suicide survivor, former professional athlete, to a tattoo “first-timer”, BEHIND THE INK gets up close and personal with individuals whose body art ranges from playful motifs to deep memorials for lost loved ones — all with a distinct purpose and meaning.
