THE 8TH
HONG KONG CHINA INT'L TATTOO EXHIBITION
4-6/10/2024

With celebrity names under the belt like David Beckham and LeBron James, Gabe Shum is one of the most inspired and legendary tattooists to the stars when it comes to needles and ink.

Gabe has been involved deeply into changing and driving the Asian tattoo culture away from negative connotations ever since.

In 2013, Gabe organised Hong Kong’s first-ever three-day international tattoo convention featuring more than 100 international tattooists including the renowned Robert Hernandez and Shigenori Iwasaki. It became a great success in putting Hong Kong on the global tattoo-map, which leads to a yearly event with over 300 participating tattooists.

論到紋身，Gabe便是一衆名人如David Beckham和LeBron James之選。Gabe對推廣亞洲紋身文化不謂餘力並至力改變各種外界對紋身所產生的誤解及負面想法至今。2013年，Gabe領導《飛騰刺青》團隊舉辦香港有史以來第一次為期三天的《香港中國國際紋身展》並得到超過100多名世界各地頂級紋身師支持參與，其中包括Robert Hernandez及Shigenori Iwasaki。該展成功的把香港牢牢地「刺」於國際紋身地圖上，也自此成為超過300位紋身師參年度活動。
