Rachel M. Köng

Hello everyone, my name is Rachel, I am 47 years old and I have been a tattoo artist for 14 years. After kilometres of tattooed skin, I have drawn certain understandings from it. Tattooing is not merely body art — it is also a magical tool when properly applied.

The idea then came to me to evolve my practice and reintroduce more meaning and spirituality into it.

"Tattooing is not merely body art — it is also a magical tool when properly applied."

Tattooing is an ancestral and powerful art with multiple possibilities. It is an energetic and vibratory gateway that must be used correctly.

Western civilisation has tended to drain everything of its meaning. Superficiality has unfortunately taken hold; it is time to say loud and clear that there are other possibilities far more interesting than mere aesthetics...

My aim today is to offer a more conscious, modern tattooing connected to tribal energetic practices. A return to the ritualisation of the process. A reuse of magical and energetic symbols.
