“Among the flowers the sakura tree, among the men the warrior.”

About me

I study and explore the topics of the japanese tattoo. Since I was a kid I got really interested in comics and animated japanese cartoons (so called Anime) , that deeply marked my artistic research. I grew up into the world of tattoo as an autodidact without studying in any Academy of Art,  I dedicated myself exclusively to the study of tattoos, first approaching with the imaginary of the American traditional, in particular the school of New York, then entering next to the imaginary of the oriental art focusing myself on the ukiyo-e era. I try to create a style that combines my research, the love for the oriental culture and the powerful and simple look of the traditional tattoo, attempting to keep in line with the tradition but at the same pace with innovation.

Currently I am working at the Horror Vacui Tattoo Parlour , in Via San Vitale 40/5, Bologna.
