Hey, I'm João Takayama, born and raised in Brazil, began tattooing around 2009 and later focused on the American Traditional/Old School style. After years of traveling and guest-spotting around the globe, I felt the need to diversify my portfolio and array of styles. In 2017, I decided to settle in Berlin, where my style evolved, and I managed to expand my skill set. As an artist, I transitioned from digital media during my university years to exploring sculpting, engraving, printmaking, and more, continuously seeking new platforms to stimulate and express my creativity.
