Hip-hop and subculture
Dima began his journey in the tattoo world in 2014. He is our tattoo artist specializing in blackwork and his own unique interpretation of old school style.
Dima’s inspiration comes from the diversity of the tattoo world as well as from pop and subculture. It all began with his fascination for hip-hop and graffiti, with their expressive colors and forms. The influence of anime cannot go unmentioned either. Through its drawings, he began bringing characters to life on paper and learning the craft of painting and drawing. Nowadays, the consumption of art in all its forms still shapes his daily life – whether it’s film, image, comic, playing cards, or painted trains. Everything has a visual impact on his artistic work.
Bold Expressions: Dima’s Mastery of Blackwork Tattoos
Starting with the core principles of traditional tattooing, Dima has since broadened his expertise across various styles. His work ranges from intricate blackwork to expressive lettering, blending traditional motifs with his personal flair. Each tattoo he creates is a reflection of his evolving creativity, making every piece a true work of art.
All influences from various fields converge and are processed into unique tattoo designs in the attic, which are then brought onto your skin. It’s important to Dima that designs are clear and distinct. It doesn’t have to appeal to everyone, but everyone should be able to recognize it at first glance. Immersed in the intricate artistry of Blackwork, lettering and the timeless allure of Old School tattoo designs, he crafts each piece with meticulous attention to detail.
