Irezumi

Japanese

Flowing, body-contouring compositions: koi, dragons, waves, and blossoms.

Japanese tattoo example

Irezumi is the long-form chapter of the book — large, cohesive compositions that flow with the body and read as one piece. Koi, dragons, hannya, foo dogs, waves, wind bars, peonies, and cherry blossoms, planned across full sleeves, backs, and bodysuits over multiple sessions.

We plan the whole piece first, then tattoo it over the seasons. The flow of the body comes before any single motif.
