SASSY - YANICK
TATTOO - GUEST ARTIST
Multidisciplinary Artist initiated to art and music while very young, I quickly developed my interest and my talent for visual arts. During my studies, I experimented with different media and mediums. My taste for experimenting has lead me to a specialization in graphic design. It is around that time that I got to try my hand for the first time at tattooing.
Through the years, along with of many expositions (group or solo), I was asked to partake in many projects in the worlds of advertising and performing arts. I am the recipient of many awards and bursaries, and my work can be found in many international corporate and private collections. The Caserta Museum of Modern Art (Italy) has also acquired one of my pieces. Despite the success I earned with my paintings and installations, a desire to have more direct contact with people and my love for the tattoo, took me back full circle to the epidermal art almost fifteen years after my first go at it.
My tattoos are unique creations with a surreal and graphic aesthetic, where concepts and textures get married or collide. My goal is to tell a story with the elements given to me by my clients. My work mostly consists of black and grey pieces with bright colour overlays elements.
I have at heart to create for you a tattoo that will surprise and stand out, as much by its uniqueness as its fluidity and readability. My background in graphic design and visual arts gives my work a particular artistic sensibility.
