Selected work · 01

The work
is the record.

Thirteen stills and three moving studies across four visual languages. Each composition is built for a person, not pulled from a template.

Move at your own pace. Images open full-frame; films pause with one tap.

Use the arrows, number strip or swipe. Select a still to inspect it, or a moving study to pause it.

Visual languages · 02

Four visual languages.
One hand behind them.

An old-school education left one habit: learn every style, then keep the four that hold a life's work. Each language has its own chapter in the archive.

Dymon Jimenez · 03

He traded a skateboard
for a tattoo machine.

That exchange changed the direction of his life. More than twenty-five years ago, with fewer resources and no shortcuts, Dymon Jimenez learned the craft empirically: drawing, tattooing, observing, and doing it again.

Old-school training made him versatile. Today, he concentrates that experience into four visual languages while treating every new piece as another reason to study.

“Don’t copy. Create. The best tattoo is the one that means something to you.”
