PHILOSOPHY
BODY
The body is the first site of self-perception.
What is marked on the body becomes part of how the body is read —
by the one who carries it, and by the world that meets it.
FORM
Tattooing is composition before ornament.
The image is built before it is drawn.
Structure determines how the body holds the work over time.
ARCHETYPE
Form precedes meaning.
Symbols arrive through repetition, not through explanation.
The work operates beneath narrative.
MEMORY
What is marked remains.
A composition is designed to hold — visually and structurally —
across decades of the body it lives on.
PRACTICE
The current focus is the male body and large-scale composition.
Symmetry, structure, and integration of form —
not deconstruction, but the assembly of coherent architecture
on the male anatomy.
Female practice develops separately, in a different register:
freehand, in studio, in extended sessions.
The method is responsive rather than pre-constructed —
composition unfolds in dialogue with the body in real time.
