Hello from the other side of the screen! My name is Eduard, but I go by the nickname Proskurink. I’ve recently landed in this incredible space called Antiek Tattoo shop, and I couldn’t be more excited to be here. My tattoo journey began 10 years ago in sunny Barcelona, where my first tattoo experience completely changed my perspective. It connected something deep within me and has fueled my passion for tattooing ever since. I’m constantly influenced by my environment and the artists I have the privilege to work alongside. I’m also a big fan of metal and noise music, which has a huge impact on my stylistic approach. The bold black surfaces and textures often seen in this genre help me create my own visual language, playing with body shapes to craft something truly unique.
You can usually find me at the tattoo shop, or follow me on IG @proskurink to see updates on my work and events I’ll be attending. Looking forward to connecting and creating something special together!
Horror Tattoos
The origins of horror tattoos are closely tied to the evolution of horror as a cultural phenomenon. Classic monster movies from Universal Studios in the 1930s and 1940s—featuring characters like Frankenstein, the Mummy, and the Wolfman—created a visual language for horror that tattoo artists adopted over time. Common themes in horror tattoos are: monsters, demons, skulls, skeletons, anything occult and supernatural, folkore creatues (vampires, werevolves, zombies) and surreal of psychological horror. The style varies widely—some are hyper-realistic, others cartoonish or surreal. Many use dark, bold lines and shading, with pops of red to emphasize blood or violence.
dark art Tattoos
Dark art tattoos are a style of body art that draws heavily from themes of mystery, macabre, and the surreal. They often have a striking, dramatic aesthetic and can range from gothic to horror-inspired, blending elements of fine art and tattooing to create bold and expressive designs. Dark art tattoos are not just body adornments but are often deeply personal expressions of identity, philosophy, and aesthetic preference. They serve as both a statement and a celebration of the darker, mysterious facets of the human experience. Common themes are: skulls, monsters, slasher characters, demons or occult symbols and zombies. The style varies from black and grey work, dotwork and fine line up to negative space.
