With over a decade of experience, Bradley Silver is a tattoo artist specializing in abstract graphic blackwork tattooing. His career began with a two year apprenticeship with renowned artist Logan Aguilar at Venus Modern Body Arts in New York City. In 2013, after graduating from his apprenticeship, he started working full time in New York’s Lower East Side at White Rabbit Tattoo Studio, where he developed his voice in graphic blackwork tattooing. Exhibiting leadership skills and dedication to his craft, he was asked to take on the role of Head Artist in 2016, where he was involved in bringing on new talent, team management and studio workspace improvements. During this time, Bradley traveled throughout the United States to guest tattoo in several notable studios, as well as frequenting national and international tattoo conventions, winning first place “Most Unusual 2020” at the prominent Villian Arts Tattoo Convention in Philadelphia. In 2020, Bradley was accepted to join Inked NYC as part of their opening staff. Owned by Inked Magazine, the world’s premier tattoo lifestyle media outlet, Inked NYC was poised to be one of the top luxury tattoo studios in New York City. This was a major milestone in Bradley’s tattoo career as well as a great opportunity to network and collaborate with some of the industry’s finest tattoo artists and high end media team. In 2023, Bradley put a lifelong dream into action and teamed up with his wife - also a visual artist - to build a combined tattoo studio and art gallery near his home in the Hudson Valley.
