Are Tattoos More Popular Now?

A Bit of Culture welcomes two guests, Sheryll Paul and Vernon Adrian Emuang, to accompany our host, Kam Raslan on his journey of self reflection. But before that, they start the show by talking about tattoos and their rise in popularity among people, and the level of acceptance now, compared to before. The conversation then shifts to exploring the viability of the arts as a way to promote inter-cultural engagements to foster unity and acceptance in our increasingly polarising society. In the second half of the show, Kam asks Sheryll and Vernon on whether there are ways for us to assess whether the work that we produce is good or bad. As always, tune in to see how they navigate these topics!
