Hello,

My name is Julian de Barros. I am multimedia artist with interests that include painting, ceramics, fashion and tattooing.

I moved to New York around 5 years ago to work as a tattoo artist at former Welcome Home Studio. Nowadays, I work at Confessions, New York, a multidisciplinary and queer safe space, among other amazing artists. Most of my career was as a handpoke tattooer, but now I am focused in machine tattooing. I still work with both techniques depending on project or per request.

I like to integrate my visual & digital work with tattooing. Check this link to see other of my works. The footer of this page has links for you to see more.

My background is in Architecture - I studied Architecture and Urbanism at the University of Sao Paulo, in Brazil - and I have worked in different Art Institutions with research and ateliers. I’ve also worked as a graphic designer the years prior to tattooing.

In 2019, I traveled for a year visiting multiple cities - like Toronto, Hamburg, London, Paris and more. Coming to New York has opened a range of possibilities in my career and I hope to make the most of this experience.

Thank you for reading.
