About
Ahrip
Born in Korea, tattoo artist Ahrip has spent over seven years refining his craft before moving to France in 2022. Rooted in dotwork, his creations unveil a distinctive universe—delicate, intricate, and always in search of new possibilities.
Ahrip’s work extends far beyond mere imagery. Each piece carries its own narrative, unfolding like a story etched onto the skin. Through this, he elevates tattooing into an art form that captures both life and emotion.
Recognized with multiple awards at international conventions, Ahrip continues to embrace his practice with gratitude and joy. For him, every tattoo is more than a creation—it is a gift of an entirely new world, offered to those who wear his art and to those who behold it.
