Alongside my studio practice, I offer handpoke tattoos through two ongoing series: The Memory Project and The Queerchives.
The Memory Project features abstract flash designs rooted in personal and collective memory. These intuitive forms act as quiet markers of experience, emotion, and time.
The Queerchives draws from vintage gay magazines, protest posters, and fragments of queer print culture. These images are reimagined through tattooing, offering them extended life and another way to exist. Carried not on paper but in skin.
Each tattoo is created by hand using the handpoke method. It is a slow and deliberate process that centers care, presence, and conversation. These small, permanent works are part of my broader multidisciplinary practice exploring queer identity, memory, and visual culture.
Custom pieces are available by request.
Sessions are by appointment in Portland, Maine.
