Accepting the fleeting nature
of existence,

1:06:06
understanding that
the transitoriness of Creation

1:06:10
bestows it with value is
the foundation of Japanese culture.

1:06:14
Many collectors hide their pieces
behind glass.

1:06:18
I prefer to let them hang freely.
1:06:21
It makes them come to life.
1:06:24
Our society is in a transition. Instead
of advancing away from the primitive...

1:06:30
We are drawn back to our base natures.
1:06:37
Some more than others.

Stefan Kreiner, the junkie.
1:06:48
Ironically,
some of the most valuable artworks

1:06:52
are on the most worthless bodies.
What's in there?

1:06:55
Everything needed to care
for the tattoos. - Skin care?

1:06:58
Interesting.
1:07:01
We should get down to business now.
1:07:04
I believe you have something with you.
1:07:23
The pinnacle of tattoo art.
1:07:27
Perhaps of all art.
Absolutely priceless.

1:07:31
Speaking of prices.
1:07:34
Yes, you want to know
who deals with tattoos.

1:07:40
There are no traders.
1:07:44
Only like-minded people.
1:07:46
All the transactions are legal.
1:07:50
The tattoos come from
the families of deceased owners.

1:07:54
Or from voluntary sales,
like with our mutual friend, the junkie.

1:07:58
There's no shortage of his type.
