The tattoo was done by artist Tweakt with the help of “from the alien computer brain” of Nusi Quero, a “digital fashion artist” in LA.
Quero shared some behind-the-scenes footage of the process on Instagram, calling the end result “a brave and beautiful decision and talisman” [Grimes] will henceforth take with her an armor, a spectrum field that will influence and protect her in ways that are unknown, but undoubtedly with a benevolence of some kind. ‘

The tattoo itself was completed in a single session, Quero added.
