Who We Feature

Artists, Studios & Brands With A Point Of View

Our coverage is designed for voices that are actively contributing to tattoo culture—through their work, their story, or their influence.

  • Exceptional or distinctive tattoo work with clear technical mastery.
  • A recognizable style, perspective, or visual language.
  • Notable achievements, awards, collaborations, or press.
  • A compelling personal or creative journey worth telling.
  • Influence within a niche, scene, or broader community.
  • Innovation in technique, subject matter, or storytelling.

These standards guide our team’s evaluation process; not all criteria must be met. Each submission is reviewed holistically.
