Tattoo Artist Scott Campbell Cuts Up Currency & Burns Tortillas



The last time I featured someone who defaced money in the name of art, Hanna Von Goeler, the post received numerous controversial comments. Well, get ready to start typing again, because this time, I'm sharing with you some seriously cut up currency by tattoo artist Scott Campbell.

We've Heard Of Art As Currency, But What About Currency As Art?


My Money, My Currency by Hanna von Goeler

"My currency work originated in California, while I was studying at UC Davis. I was very interested in camouflage at the time. This interest led me to create my first paintings on dollar bills, between 1992-94, in which I camouflaged/painted images onto and into bills. A death in the family led me to the east coast, and faced with the costs of living in New York City on an artist’s budget, I continued to paint on money."

C'mon people, it's only a dollar.
