Ineradicable Stain is an awesome project from Shelley Jackson who aims to collect precise examples of the written word in tattoo form. A pretty cool idea, and 695 participants are still needed for the project.
If you love this idea as much as me, then it might be a good idea to buy the book Body Type by Ina Saltz, which works on much the same premise. Take a look at some of the words that have been collected for the Ineradicable Stain project above.
