Death Rituals Series: The Art of Ashes Infused Tattoos with Bubblegum Ink

Memorial Ink is on the table today! 

In this episode of our Death Rituals series, Ashley speaks with tattoo artist Paul Cutler, founder of Bubblegum Ink Tattoo Shop, about the deeply personal process of creating ashes-infused tattoos. Bubblegum Ink is a tattoo studio in Cheshire, UK, specializing in deeply personal memorial tattoos, including ashes‑infused tattoos that incorporate cremated remains. 

Paul explains how cremation ashes can be safely incorporated into tattoo ink, allowing people to carry a physical connection to loved ones who have passed. Drawing from years of experience working with grieving clients, he shares emotional stories from the tattoo chair and reflects on what working so closely with grief has taught him about life and connection.
