about
I’m a tattoo artist/versatile creative born in Switzerland, now based in Aljezur, a small town in the South West of Portugal.
I spent many winters working in the Swiss Alps and travelling in summer. Snowboarding, and a bit later also surfing, influenced my life ever since. The choice of places I lived and travelled to, the people I met along the way, it was all a choice based on riding boards, even though I wasn’t even meant to be any good at it in this life. But I guess it is, just like art, one of the things that keeps me going and enjoying life on a rather strange planet.
I moved to Portugal back in 2022, to follow the call of finding a permanent all year home base and finally have my own tattoo studio, ready to dedicate all year to surfing and art.
Since I started tattooing in 2020, I have focused mainly on tattoo techniques and designs. After a few years of exclusively directing all my energy into tattooing, I‘m currently expanding my work and directing my creative energy into other fields such as Illustrations, wall paintings and analog photography.
I do believe the interaction between artist(s) and art is what gives a soul and greatness to any artwork, and in times they try to replace everything with machines, I‘m happily being part of the ones that resist and stick to the old school ways, believing that there will always be people that value the realness behind that.
