about
im just a local weirdo tattooing in vancouver :) started back in 2016 but really feel like i came into my own in 2018 when i started a studio with a dear pal April (@jalapenospring); with Kiki (@worm.mecha) joining right away. learning and shaping this industry with them has been a gift.tattooing is my main love and art practice. my focus is to have a relaxed time together. most of my work is freehand so its important to take it at a pace we are both comfortable with. i love working with flowing concepts that cover limbs and hinges. i love working with fellow trans people and making our bodies beautiful homes. t4t tattooing is something im grateful for everyday.i work with a few textiles. rug making has been an exploration of color for me over the last 4 year. other things you will fings me working on are sewing, crocheting, stained glass, free sculpting, fabric painting and bleaching, leather work, eeeettttccccc. you can find some of my favorite projects on this websiteall my practices and beliefs are interwoven and rooted in liberation and indigenous sovereignty.
rugs!
i started making rugs back in 2021. it was a welcomed way to calm pandemic anxieties that led into my biggest exploration of color. i punch there by hand loop by loop whie i zone out into different parts of my brain (:
