“Born in 1981 Fukuoka, Japan, I started tattooing at the age of 16 and became an apprentice of Master HORIGANE in Osaka at the age of 18. I was taught Traditional TEBORI and traditional Japanese tattoos.I am interested in Japanese swords and samurai culture, and I learned a lot from swordsmiths and researchers, and it is used in tattoo design. Currently, I run a private studio in Japan that harmonizes traditional culture and tattoos.”
