Benjamin

Hey, I’m Benjamin. A big softie who has a love for the bold and surreal. After spending my formative years studying in the field of Contemporary Performance Art (attaining a BH Honours Degree), I spent multiple years working in the print trade, touring as a freelance musician & running an environmentally sustainable tree care company. After, stepping away from all this to finally follow my desire of working in the tattoo industry, I spent some time managing a studio before finally gaining my apprenticeship under the incredible Kimmi Gayle here at Aphotic Tattoo Studio.

I’ve been a few places as well as experienced a few things, once I even nearly bought a circus tent & started my own circus. Despite all this there is plenty more to see as I continue to pursue my career in the world of Body Art, so feel free to get in touch and we can look over all your amazing design ideas.
