Hi! I'm Bence, originally from Hungary. My journey into tattooing began in my homeland, and soon after, I embarked on a journey across Europe for six years. This time was filled with learning from fellow artists and connecting with incredible individuals. By 2015, I made the decision to relocate to New York. Since making this move, I've settled into life and work here. I occasionally do guest spots and conventions worldwide, several times a year.

Hopefully I’ll get to meet a lot of new clients/friends through this platform.

Sincerely, -Bence

I’m Fiori, a Brazilian artist currently based in New York.Since I was a kid, I loved drawing up and creating art. Having the privilege of my mother being a tattoo artist since I was only 9 years old, I got in touch with the techniques and knowledge of tattooing very early. Due to my mother’s passion for traveling and my dad working as a circus artist,I was always on the move in Brasil.
In the year of 2002, I started tattooing. Drawing, music and traveling were more than just hobbies to me, it was my life, so I arrived at a decision to start to travel on my own.
The destination of my first trip, by the age of 19, was the beautiful city of London. Working there as a tattoo artist apprentice for a nice tattoo shop was my first experience abroad. After this crazy year, I decided to go to Italy in order to know other tattoo scenes and of course to see life in another amazing country. I was traveling and working in Italy for 3 years, in between I went back to Brasil several times.
After 9 years in Spain, 5 years running my business and having one of the best times of my life, full of different experiences with ups and downs, I felt like I wanted a bit more of freedom again. It’s in my blood, so I decided to hit the road again and keep doing what I was doing before, but this time more focused in a style which I came to find out to love the NEO TRADITIONAL. I was also working in Germany for the past few years, and just exploring a bit different cultures all around.
I’ve decide to finally make base in New York, and can’t wait to start new projects with a whole new approach. 




My name is Carmen Jang. I specialize in floral tattoos. I have a delicate and feminine touch to every tattoo I do, with a unique flare. I create art on the body, and accentuate the flow and curves of a women's body. I started tattooing in 2016, specializing in Asian traditional tattoos and then started to get mesmerized with floral. My style has evolved over the years with essence of Asian tattoos and contemporary floral work, soft yet edgy, bold yet delicate yet always feminine and sensual. 

I have been engaged in art for more than 10 years. I work in the style of color tattoo, abstraction & surrealism.

French artist based in San Francisco, I graduated from fashion and design school at the age of 19. That gave me a unique approach of the body. It is 10 years later that I first touched a tattoo needle and immediately fell in love with this practice. As a black worker I like to develop female silhouettes and naturalists botanical pieces, contrasting thin etching lines with bold elements. 
 I adapt these themes to other mediums, such as clay and paint, in a more vibrant palette. 
Before establishing in SF, CA my needles travelled all over Europe. 

Jersey-born ink slinger, Jon carved his path through gritty apprenticeships and relentless hustle. No guarantees, just raw passion and a needle. Now he's rewriting skin stories daily.
