MIIINK (owner of private tattoo studio, MIIINK, in Tokyo, Japan)
Known for her delicate and detailed lines, MIIINK introduces a decorative style that brings out the ephemeral beauty for women, while at the same time, prevents men from looking too intimidating.
She was born in 1983, Yamanashi, Japan.
After graduating high school, MIIINK studied fashion design at a vocational school, then upon graduation, was hired by a jewelry manufacturer in a sales and planning position. MIIINK first entered the world of tattoos when she was feeling conflicted with not being able to create her own art at work.
After getting her first tattoo at age 25, she makes the decision to become a tattoo artist apprentice. She then quits her job at the jewelry company to be more focused in her training.
MIIINK came to Tokyo when she was 30 years old, where she spent two years working as a manager of SEEK, a tattoo studio in Shinjuku, Kabukicho before making the move to go independent.
She is heavily influenced by European culture, and periodically does guest work in Spain and France. She seeks to learn techniques and culture from abroad and contribute her findings to the tattoo culture in Japan.
