About

We’re a small group of tattoo artists and designers who love discovering and curating the best tattoo designs online.

Our goal is to make Body Artifact your main destination for tattoo inspiration, whether you’re looking for your first or last piece.

If you’re an artist, we’ve got a ton of resources to help you learn more about the practice, the styles, and recommended gear.

Lastly, we’ve put together comprehensive city guides showing the highest-rated tattoo studios available, helping save you time on discovering the best place for you to get your next ink.
