About Me.
I, Mert Coskun, hold degrees in Civil and Industrial Engineering from Istanbul and completed a Master’s in Business Administration. My professional career began in 2015, and in 2017, driven by my passion for art, I started learning the craft of tattooing.
Art has been an integral part of my life since childhood, my mother is a painter, and I grew up watching her bring canvases to life with oil paints and sculptures. Being surrounded by the scent of oil paint and witnessing the creative process nurtured my artistic curiosity from an early age.
When I first began tattooing in 2017, I combined my engineering background with my artistic approach by designing tattoos in AutoCAD. This method, which I continued until 2020, allowed me to refine my attention to detail, ensuring every design was meticulously crafted with precision.
In 2020, my journey took an exciting turn when my dear friend and talented artist, Sergio, invited me to his studio in Valencia. His trust in my work gave me the confidence to push my artistic boundaries, marking my first international tattooing experience.
In 2022, my engineering career led me from Istanbul to Brussels, bringing my tattooing practice along with it. Thanks to the support of L'Abeille Blanche ASBL, I was able to connect with clients and grow my artistic presence in Brussels.
Over the past eight years, I have performed more than 4,000 tattoos across 5 different countries, each experience shaping my style and deepening my connection to the art form.
Today, I work as an engineer in Antwerp during the week and dedicate my weekends to tattooing in Brussels. My studio is more than just a workspace, it is a meditative sanctuary where I unwind and immerse myself in my art. Every session is a moment of creative flow, and I believe this sense of tranquility reflects in my work.
So, when you book a session with me, you’re not just getting a tattoo, you’re stepping into a space where art and mindfulness come together.
