I’m Dahn/Luca and have been working as a professional piercer for around six years. Piercing is a passion for me, not just a job. Creating a safe and welcoming space for everyone is especially important to me, particularly for queer people. As a non-binary person, I bring personal understanding and a sensitive approach to my work. Continuous education and professional development are just as important to me.

For the past five years, I’ve regularly attended BMXnet, one of the most well-known international conferences for piercing and body modification. Last year, I had the opportunity to lead a workshop there on queer sensitivity in body art. Beyond that, I stay in close exchange with piercers from around the world to continuously grow professionally and stay up to date within the industry. I usually work with larger gauge jewelry and especially enjoy symmetrical and concept-driven piercing projects.

I’m also passionate about supporting long-term full-body projects and helping people express themselves through body art. For me, piercing is not just about technique — it’s also about creativity and trust, because: “A piercing can be so much more than just a beautiful piece of jewelry.”
