Bernini’s Medusa does not show a monster in the simple sense. It shows a face caught at the moment of recognition: fear, shock, punishment, and transformation arriving at once. This tattoo reflects on Medusa not as a symbol of evil, but as someone marked by violence and turned into an image others were afraid to look at. A classical figure becomes a study of trauma, power, and survival.

A Toi Toi toilet tattoo sounds absurd, but in Berlin it becomes strangely accurate. This small trilogy began with one client’s fascination for portable toilets and turned into a reflection on construction sites, temporary structures, unfinished spaces, and the city’s permanent state of transition. Funny, practical, anonymous, and everywhere, the Toi Toi becomes a small love letter to Berlin’s improvised soul.

Made for @klaus_fisch at Visions of Ecstasy in Berlin, this jellyfish tattoo reflects on movement, fragility, and quiet survival. The jellyfish does not dominate the ocean; it adapts, yields, and responds to the current. Soft but not defenceless, delicate but not weak, the image holds grace and danger at once — a reminder that strength can also mean flow, awareness, and the ability to keep moving without disappearing.

Made at Visions of Ecstasy for Jacob from Leipzig, this tattoo comes from the strange world of medieval manuscript margins, where armed rabbits chase hunters, attack knights, and reverse the natural order. Playful, violent, absurd, and difficult to explain, these images turn weakness into power and humour into disruption. In red, the rabbit becomes sharper: a small figure from the margins of history, still refusing to behave.

Inspired by Aristophanes’ myth in Plato’s Symposium, this tattoo reflects on spherical people, separation, desire, and the search for what feels missing. First brought into the work by Vale and later chosen by Johanna Frieg, the drawing waited until it found the right body. With a quiet Fornasetti influence, the piece became a shared image: ancient myth, friendship, patience, and a tattoo that belongs to more than one person.
