Comedian and artist Harriet Richardson has permanently tattooed the names of the mothers of every man she has ever slept with onto her body – including two she had to hire a private detective to track down.
The Manchester-born performer now has 15 women’s names running down her body in chronological order, beginning with the mother of the first man she slept with and ending with the most recent.
It is Richardson’s first and only tattoo – particularly significant considering she doesn’t actually like tattoos very much – and forms part of her performance art project Temporary.
‘Temporary is essentially the name of the one woman that every man holds apart from all others in his life,’ Richardson told Metro.
