Our Story
Don't forget your roots1
Toronto offers a unique experience to artists which serves as the perfect setting for our vision. It is the nucleus for the greatest diversity of art and culture found on the planet. It has been our dream to explore the journeys and stories of the people who inhabit this great city, to help them transform those stories into a living art piece. If you want a tattoo but are unsure of what design you want, let us help you with the creative process. We believe that everyone has a story to tell, and we cannot wait to hear yours.
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.
― Aristotle
To us, tattoos are more than just ink and needles. Tattoos are a collaboration between the artist and you. This is why we believe tattooing is the greatest job in the world. It allows us to connect on profound levels with so many amazing individuals. There is so much that art can do for our lives. Art is the universal language we all speak. More can be said in a picture than any written word could ever express. We want to help you capture the exact meaning and purpose you wish to express with your new tattoo so that it may echo outwards to those who see it.
Our artists share in our passion for creating and celebrating art. It is for these reasons that we are only happy when providing you with the best possible experience we can. We are certain that you will love our spacious and modern studio featuring master class tattoo artists of every style, state-of-the-art electronic adjustable beds to maximize your comfort during those long sessions, and an outdoor terrace when you need a break and fresh air. We are excited at the opportunity to connect with you and help you create your own piece of art that is truly you.
We are proud to offer a wide variety of professional services including body piercing and permanent makeup services. Complete your look with a new piece of body jewelry from one of our expert piercers/or enhance your beauty with our powder brows, lip blushing and lash enhancement cosmetic tattoos from our talented PMU artists. We want to help you look your best while feeling great about your experience. Get in touch with us today to talk about your next project.
If we, citizens, do not support our artists, then we sacrifice our imagination on the altar of crude reality and we end up believing in nothing and having worthless dreams.
― Yann Martel
