Japanese-style tattoos are considered one of the most popular manifestations of this artistic discipline. In particular, this culture has expanded and crossed borders to different parts of the world. Many of these images date back to the Edo period and tend to depict important characters and anecdotes within the historical evolution of Japan. Over the centuries, this type of art has evolved into two distinct styles: traditional Japanese and Neo-Japaneses.
One artist who stands out and takes these styles to the most exclusive and unique level is the tattoo artist Kaorukel, who, with her talent and creativity, is making a strong name for herself in both Europe and America.
A look at the Far East
Both her talent and her high-quality results have allowed Kaorukel (Raquel is her given name) to participate in important conventions such as The All Stars, which took place in Miami on September 29 last year, TattooCon in Dortmund, Germany, and TattooFest Iasi in Romania, among others.
Her tattoos are characterized by preserving the most representative values of the traditional Japanese style, using various vivid colors and methodologies that make her works worthy representatives of this genre. Many of her pieces are inspired by characters and legends from Eastern folklore. Among her creations, it is very likely to find a great variety of koi fish, samurais, kitsunes, geishas, onis, Ryu dragons, Hannya masks, Daruma dolls, and kabuki theater characters, among other alternatives.
New manifestations of Japanese art
Kaorukel is also interested in the new artistic manifestations of Japan, translating characters from popular culture into tattoos, such as manga superheroes or recognized anime characters.
Among her interests as a tattoo artist is offering her clients original and unique pieces, often fusing traditional images with her own creations, so that people carry with them a singular work not found reproduced on another human canvas.
Kaorukel is willing to accompany her clients to ensure they can access a unique and high-quality piece of art.
