For many generations, our islands have practiced indigenous skin marking as a way to honor their ancestors.

It is common for individuals in the diaspora to  yearn for a reconnection to our ancestral ways of living.

​A tattoo ceremony is one of the cultural practices that aids us to educate ourselves about our families, ancestors and lineage.


All the gratitude for making me part of your journey.
