behind talvi Kuu tattoo
My name is Damien, I am a trans, queerdo, Italian artist and my pronouns are they/them.
I moved to Finland in 2015 and began my tattoo journey in 2016. In 2021 I joined the first queer studio in Helsinki (Studio Nokkasiili) and from 2025, I’ve been a resident at Tattooed Salome.
I’ve gained my tattoo hygiene pass in Italy by Confartigianato Liguria after 4 months of studying dermatology, epidemiology, ink and studio laws. As part of the course, I’ve also trained at a tattoo studio in Italy. I’ve also participated in the annual F.T.A.A. hygiene workshop in 2023.
I also participated in Skin Deep Workshop on how to tattoo darker skin tones in 2024.
For me, tattooing means creating a bond of trust with the customer in a safe environment, as both will work together creating something that will accompany the latter for life.
I enjoy doing any kind of work but traditional style tattoos with a twist and texturized blackwork are my favourites.
Last year I started studying cosmetology and barbering to branch out and provide more (and different) services catered to everyone.
