FROM SOPHIE:


I began tattooing in 2002, opening my first studio in a small mountain town in eastern France, near the Swiss border.

Over the following fourteen years, I traveled across Europe, presenting my work at several tattoo conventions and becoming an award-winning artist. During this time, I built a network of fellow professional artists who supported both my technical development and creative evolution.

Always eager to learn and embrace new challenges, I decided in 2016 to move from France to the United States.

Now based in California, the region’s advanced technology and boundless creative spirit continue to inspire my work—especially my large-scale geometric tattoo designs, where precision, balance, and flow come together on the body.

For me, tattooing is more than a craft.
It is a profound exchange of energy between artist and client. Where intention is placed, a magnetic energy begins to shape a new reality. Through dialogue and collaboration, each tattoo becomes a meaningful creation—an expression designed to resonate both visually and personally.

“Together, we can create your ideal design,

regardless of whether it's for aesthetic beauty,

spiritual meaning, or pure fun.”
