Conversation
We start with your idea, placement, scale and references. You do not need to arrive with a finished design.
Berlin · Custom & Freehand
Large-scale blackwork
shaped around the body.
Neotribal, ornamental and body-flow compositions developed around anatomy, movement and proportion.
Selected work
Built for the body,
not placed on it.
Approach
The body
comes first.
Every project begins with anatomy. Rather than fitting an isolated image onto the skin, I develop compositions around movement, proportion and placement.
Bold black forms, negative space and freehand drawing allow each piece to become part of the body’s structure.
Process
From conversation
to composition.
Composition
The design is developed around your anatomy, often directly on the body through freehand drawing.
Tattooing
Large pieces may unfold over several sessions, allowing the composition to develop with care and precision.
