The Vault - Kari Barba | SullenTV

Kari Barba is a trailblazing tattoo artist who began her professional journey in 1979 at the age of 19, quickly establishing herself as one of the few women in a predominantly male industry where she faced and overcame significant sexism to earn respect through her exceptional skill and perseverance. Since 1983, she has owned Outer Limits Tattoo in Long Beach, California, recognized as the oldest continuously operating tattoo shop in America, and her career boasts over 500 awards, reflecting her mastery in innovative designs, color work, and technical advancements. Barba's profound impact on tattoo culture includes championing gender equality, mentoring emerging artists, and contributing to the art form's evolution from a fringe, underground practice to a widely accepted mainstream cultural phenomenon, while also preserving its history through initiatives like the Tattoo Heritage Project. Viewers can catch it all on this episode of "The Vault."
