The rhythmic hum of a tattoo machine in Rye Lanez studio in South London abruptly stops, and 25-year-old Olivia jumps off the soft couch to examine the fresh work – a black ant the size of a large egg on her thigh. “It’s totally me,” she smiles, showing the result to her boyfriend Sam, who also came for a new star tattoo.

The studio walls in Peckham are covered from floor to ceiling with laminated sheets of designs: here are classic Japanese irezumi dragons, lush pin-up girls, and even an ironic drunk Bart Simpson.
