Trash Polka moon tattoo
Phases, crescents and full-face moons — the night's timekeeper. Moon phases running down the spine are a modern classic. In Trash Polka, that reads as: chaos, composed.

The Buena Vista Tattoo Club signature: realistic imagery collaged with brutal red-and-black graphic elements, smears, typography and geometric chaos. Trash polka is loud, cinematic and unapologetically modern — designed for large canvases like the forearm, thigh or chest.
A moon carries cycles & change, femininity, intuition — and Trash Polka's red & black give that symbolism its voice. Placement matters too: this subject flows best on the spine, wrist, behind the ear.
