Some people regret getting a tattoo of someone's name, perhaps an old flame. But a Silver Lake woman has no qualms about covering her body in strangers' names.Artist Illma Gore says she wants to cover herself in tattoos from her neck down for a special art exhibit and social experiment.For $10, she'll tattoo your name or a few words onto her skin. The 22-year-old says it's like covering her body in hundreds of tiny stories."There is something absurd and beautiful about having an accumulation of absolute strangers names draped over my pale goth skin, even if half of them are 'Penis Butt,'" Gore stated on her GoFundMe page , which she is using to pay for her exhibition.As of Saturday night, Gore has raised $4,170. She still needs to raise $6,000.Gore says it will take an estimated 60 hours to complete the tattooing, with some of it being done live at the exhibit at the end of March."The idea is that it's permanent and it's forever and it's a piece of artwork. It's just this time the canvas is me and as the artist, that's like the ultimate, you know, canvas," Gore said. ||||| Illma Gore is a 22-year-old woman from Los Angeles who has just launched one of the boldest Kickstarter campaigns that we've seen. Gore, who clearly already has an affinity for inking, has announced her project to get strangers' names or messages tattooed all over her body. Or as she puts it: "Help me cover my body in tattoos before I'm sick and old and knitting mittens for lobsters." 
 
 It's pretty cheap too – I could get my name tattooed on Gore's leg for just $10, which at today's rates works out at £6.57. I've definitely spent more on worse. 
 
 Gore says that she currently has 47 tattoos, although she's not sure. She got her first when she sneaked her way into a tattoo parlour at 15, using a friend's ID. "She looked nothing like me," she tells us. "She was tanned!"
– A 22-year-old California artist whose love of tattoos is instantly obvious (she estimates she has 47) is just a few days into a brash GoFundMe campaign: to become her very own crowdsourced art installation. For $10, people can get their name or one to two words of their choosing tattooed on Illma Gore's flesh—the only requests she says she'll turn down are words of hate or discrimination, reports Dazed Digital. "Tattoo Me," as she calls it, is an experiment to be a "piece of unsellable artwork" that will culminate in an LA exhibition in late March, where some of the final tattoos will be inked on live, reports KABC-TV. "There is something absurd and beautiful about having an accumulation of absolute strangers [sic] names draped over my pale goth skin, even if half of them are 'Penis Butt,'" she writes on her GoFundMe page, which will fund the exhibition itself. Gore estimates it will take more than 60 hours to complete the tattooing, hence the desired $6,000. She's currently surpassed that goal by a few hundred dollars. "Almost every mentally stable person has told me not to do this," she says. "I understand their views. But it's my vision—they don't have to like it." (A Dutch foundation will actually remove and save the tattoos of loved ones after they die.)
