The triangle shaped tattoos represent stability, balance, and change. Triangles with their sharp lines tend to depict the power of a direction, and each corner has a different meaning. The idea of a triangle-shaped tattoo can be both minimalistic and geometric, and elaborate works of art.
They may be customized to mirror their beliefs, relationships, or life experiences. Simple or not, these tattoos are very frequently selected for their clean, contemporary appearance and deeper symbolic meaning. Inverted triangles (which are associated with femininity or change), and triangles with more patterns or colors to make the design more original are some of the popular variations.
