Deepfake Armageddon (Patreon)

"Each in their mid twenties, their youth and output of work would qualify them as young turks; the tattoo tag-team of Corbin & Higgs - Fred and Dan." - Frisco Skin and Tattoo Ink, 1990.

A few weeks ago I took a quick trip to West Coast for the Higgs & Corbin Deepfake Armageddon show at San Francisco's ATAK Gallery; as always I had the best of intentions to thoroughly document the event, it's attendees, the art and artists, etc but as always time and talking got away from me and all I could manage to do was grab a few shots, an original Corbin painting, and as fate would have it, a case of Covid. 

The show runs through November 30th in San Francisco, and as of today (20th November) there are still a few original pieces available on ATAK Website: https://www.analogtattoo.com/deepfake-armageddon 

New Work by Fred Corbin. 

New work by Daniel Higgs.

It was a fun night and very, very nostalgia-overload- having followed both of their careers for over three decades, video from a 1990 documentary featuring the pair was the first post I put up on the Occult Vibrations blog when it was launched in 2011. Very much so "full circle" and attending the show inspired me to contact Fred for a tattoo, so, even with Covid- worth the trip!
