About Me

I began tattooing at the age of 16 in Istanbul. While studying graphic design and photography in high school, I was deeply influenced by the city's rich cultural and artistic environment, which helped shape my tattooing style. I completed a three-year apprenticeship in Beylikdüzü, where I honed my foundational skills.

After three years, I moved to England to further my artistic career. Shortly after relocating, the pandemic hit, causing a two-year hiatus in my work. Post-pandemic, I resumed tattooing in Nottingham, where I worked for two years, significantly enhancing my skills and passion for the craft.

Following my time in Nottingham, I worked as a guest artist in various locations across England, including London, Exeter, Bristol and Brighton. This period allowed me to meet new artists and deepen my knowledge of the profession through collaborative efforts.

Subsequently, I moved to Germany, where I have been actively working as a guest artist in Düsseldorf and Essen. Currently, I reside and work full-time in Düsseldorf, continually expanding my experience and skill set by collaborating with different studios.

I enjoy connecting with people and discussing my profession, as I believe these interactions foster growth and learning. My commitment to learning new techniques and improving my artistic abilities is unwavering. Each day presents a new opportunity to add depth to my art.

Tattooing is not just a profession for me; it is a passion and a continuous journey of self-improvement. You can explore my work and see where I have been a guest artist on my website.
