It’s certainly an apt description and clearly the artists behind the style have given it considerable thought. According to Volko, this style is a combination of “realism and trash the nature and the abstract technology and humanity past, present, and future opposites that they are trying to urge into a creative dance to harmony and rhythm in tune with the body”. Trash Polka pieces are only done in red or black ink. Trash Polka designs often reflect broader themes in much the same way as a fine art painting. The style resembles fine art collages in that in combines realistic images with smears, smudges, and kinetic designs that generate a discordant, chaotic look to the piece. Trash Polka is a style of tattoo art that began at Buena Vista Tattoo Club in Würzburg, Germany by Simone Plaff and Volko Merschky.
