Abstract

Tattoos in each region have their own characteristics, both in terms of design and in terms of manufacturing techniques. Tattoos are included as works of art because they involve drawing patterns or designs. Each region or country has its own characteristics for tattoo images. However, how tattoo artworks are legally protected in Indonesia is the object of this study. This research specifically addresses the method of tattoo artwork protection from the standpoint of intellectual property rights. This research is a doctrinal research. Data or legal materials were collected using the documentation study technique. In addition, there are three approaches used such as the statute approach, the fact approach, and the conceptual and analytical approach. The results of the study show tattoos as an object of copyright protection in images receive protection automatically provided as stipulated in the Indonesian Copyright Law. The Indonesian Copyright Law requires that tattoo designs be preserved as one of the Traditional Cultural Expressions. The patterns and methods used to create tattoos are frequently strongly linked to the values or traditions that are practiced in society, therefore protection of these traditional cultural manifestations in tattoos is offered. As one of the country’s traditional cultural expressions, Indonesians are required to catalog, maintain, and protect tattoo usage.
