Tattoos in Culture: Self-Expression, Symbols, and Social Perception

About the Webinar

This educational webinar series provides a comprehensive exploration of tattoos as a form of self-expression and their role in contemporary culture. Over four online sessions, participants will examine how tattoos function as personal and cultural symbols, and how social perception of body art has evolved.

The series investigates how individuals use tattoos to communicate identity, the diverse meanings embedded in tattoo symbolism across cultures, and the ways in which visible body art influences how people are perceived in social and professional contexts.

We approach these topics through informed discussion, invited guest perspectives, and interactive dialogue. This webinar creates space for participants to explore questions about personal expression, cultural meaning, and social attitudes without promoting commercial services.

The content is designed to be accessible to anyone interested in understanding the cultural dimensions of tattoos, regardless of whether they have tattoos themselves or are considering getting one.
