STATUS | Recognition for Tattoo Collectors

A private circle, reserved for the most discerning tattoo collectors and customers.

STATUS

A different kind of rewards program.

At SKINGRAPHICA, we don’t reward you for how much you spend. We recognise you for the art you wear.

STATUS is exclusively for verified customers. Your tier is awarded on the artistry and significance of your collection, and it can rise as your collection grows.

How it works

3 steps to recognition.

Share your work

Upload images of your tattoos with the details of your artist or studio, if known. A powerful concept behind the work, or a personal narrative that gives the piece deeper meaning, can also influence your application.

We assess your collection

Your tier reflects the artistry and significance of your collection. Work by artists featured in our rankings lists carries significant weight, and decisions are informed by our Global Top 10 Artists.

Rise over time

As your tattoo journey evolves, upload new works to reflect your growth and advance your STATUS.

Tiers and privileges

3 tiers. Each one earned by the art you wear.

Open a tier to see what it recognises and the privileges that come with it.

Global Annual Artwork Commission Award

You choose the art. You choose the artist. We pick up the tab.

Every year, we select one STATUS member to receive a new tattoo work, with all expenses covered, including flights and accommodation from their home country. We support the recipient in securing access to the artist of their choice.

It is the highest honour within STATUS, recognising a collector whose tattoos embody artistry, meaning and cultural significance.

Apply for STATUS

The STATUS rules

An honour-based system.

All images you upload must be your own tattoos, not digitally altered or manipulated by AI. To protect the integrity of STATUS, these rules apply to every application.

AI detection

We use AI detection on all submitted images.

Artist confirmation

Validation may include direct confirmation by the artist or studio involved.

Our right to decline

We reserve the right to reject STATUS applications that we determine to be misleading or fraudulent. Inappropriate or non-tattoo images will result in immediate refusal.

Image rights

By submitting images, you confirm that you hold the rights to them. SKINGRAPHICA is granted the right to use submitted images in our communications, marketing and materials.

Credit to artists

Where artists or studios are credited, SKINGRAPHICA will clearly acknowledge them whenever submitted images are used.

Hall of Fame

All submitted images are automatically considered for induction into the SKINGRAPHICA Hall of Fame. Those inducted are notified directly by SKINGRAPHICA.

Your privacy

We will never publicly disclose the personal details or names of wearers of the artwork submitted to STATUS without their express written consent.
