The Kintsugi Project

Kintsugi is the ancient Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold or silver lacquer. A practice that doesn’t hide the cracks but highlights them. It’s a philosophy that celebrates healing, resilience, and the quiet strength found in imperfection. The break is not the end of the object’s life, but the beginning of a new chapter: intricate, meaningful, and beautiful.

The Kintsugi Project brings that same philosophy to the human body. 

These tattoos don’t seek to cover flaws; they honour them. Each piece is designed to echo the delicate balance between vulnerability and strength. Scars and imperfections - whether physical marks or invisible emotional wounds - are transformed into powerful visual narrative

Every design becomes a personal emblem, shaped by your journey and elevated by the process of healing. It’s not just about the visible marks left behind by life, but the emotional ones too: the quiet griefs, the private triumphs, the invisible weight you’ve carried. In this ink, we find a way to give them form, to turn them into beauty.

This project began with clients who came not only seeking something beautiful, but something meaningful. They arrived with stories of loss, recovery, endurance, growth... and together, we traced those stories into golden pathways. These tattoos became marks of transformation, reminders that we are not defined by our wounds, but by the light that breaks through them.

Before I ever offered this to others, I experienced it for myself. I found tattooing at a moment in life when I felt lost and fractured. The act of learning, of creating, of tattooing, helped me rebuild. It showed me that marking skin could be more than aesthetic: it could be an act of quiet repair. That experience changed everything. It’s what made me truly understand the emotional and healing power a tattoo can hold.

The Kintsugi Tattoo Line isn’t just a style. It’s a way of honouring the human story in all its complexity. It’s about reclaiming space on your skin and wearing every fracture not as a flaw, but as a mark of who you are and how far you’ve come.

Let your skin tell the story of who you are, and reflect the light you carry within.
