Salt Inkso is Making a Splash With Quirky “Cats in Bags” Tattoos

Salt Inkso is a tattoo artist based in Shanghai, and she made quite a splash with her signature tattoos that feature two common elements. She’s making a splash with adorable tattoos that show cats having the time of their lives inside the net shopping bags.

Salt is one of the co-founders of the tattoo and piercing shop Inkso, based in Shanghai, China. They pride themselves in being Shanghai’s pioneer tattoo studio and providing a comfortable and professional environment for talented tattoo artists worldwide, in addition to being home to an impressive roster of local talent.

Salt is one of Inkso’s leading tattoo artists, and she’s using the power of social media to get her name out there. Her solo Instagram page is followed by over 40,000 people, and this number started growing once she grew into a style of her own, and started working on her signature “cats in bags” tattoos.

Most of Salt’s most popular artworks feature cats trying to find the way out of the net shopping bags, after sharing their space with groceries and all sorts of everyday objects, from tennis racquets and violins to wine bottles and flowers. The transparent design of grocery bags makes for a pretty impressive visual effect, allowing us to see everything inside them – including the cats trying to crawl out.
