The aim of this paper is to show how tattooing as a body experience emerges from the stories told by those who engage in this practice. As a subject of academic inquiry, the practice of tattooing has gained ground in recent years due to both an increase in lay popularity of this practice and to an increase in academic interest in the body and all that concerns it. This research, based on a series of interviews, aims to show how the meaning of the tattooed body is discursively constructed and reconstructed in different contexts, depending on the persons that demand the linguistic construction of such a meaning.

Keywords: body, tattoo, narrative, identity, anthropology
