ICARO
About
Originally born in Switzerland, I emigrated from my country in 2013 to delve deeper into the introspection of artistic expression and to strive for freedom and independence from mass society. I lived and travelled in various parts of Asia for five years, where in 2015 my journey as a tattoo artist began in northern Thailand.
For seven years, I lived in Mexico, where I had the honor of working alongside very inspiring tattoo artists. Living there strongly influenced my work through my interest in pre-Hispanic history, Indigenous cultures, archeological sites, folk art, and ancient traditions. My tattoos and paintings reflect my interpretation of these studies and visions. In my tattoo practice, I aim to respect the natural flow of the body, which is why most of my work is created freehand.
After 12 years abroad, I decided to relocate back to Zürich, Switzerland, where I now spend a large part of the year. I continue to spend the remaining time abroad to further develop my studies and sources of inspiration.
