【新靈魂主義 by 】
1. 您的刺青風格是什麼？您最擅長創作哪種類型的刺青？
我自己稱之「Neo Being/新靈魂主義」；擅長創作抽象、感受性色彩、圖騰、有時候更像是將刺青作為藝術治療進行。
2. 您從哪裡尋找靈感？什麼啟發著您的創作？
靈感來自生活，還有我的生命經歷帶來的感受與體悟。任何一切都可能啟發我，有時候是與人或自然連結，有時候只是靜下來的狀態，有時候是夢，有時候是情與愛，當我是與靈感連結的管道時，靈感即與我在一起。
3. 您曾經創作過最有挑戰的刺青是什麼？您是如何克服這些挑戰的？
旅途中，在沒有任何準備的情況下，進行說刺即刺的freehand，材料不全就在當下立即想辦法就地取材，和客人之間的高度信任與合作以及讓整個刺青狀態不被環境影響，不論安靜或喧囂，保持我與客人都專注放鬆。
4. 刺青對您來說意味著什麼？它在您的生活中扮演了什麼樣的角色？
刺青對曾經的我來說是夢想，而夢想的階段性實現之後，便成為了我的夥伴，是連結我和世界的路徑。在刺青的過程中，學習實踐著動靜結合，掌控身體與呼吸，在與客人互動時也找到了無數的靈魂碎片，療癒對方，完整彼此。在刺破皮膚造成傷害與疼痛之間，瞭解體會感受是中性的。當然，刺青和自我成長一起，帶來的收穫是無止境的。
5. 除了刺青之外，有什麼嗜好或者興趣對您的刺青創作上有所啟發或幫助？
音樂、自然、到處走走看世界。我也喜歡去玩水，特別是去海裡，被大海擁抱著，也欣賞著海面與海底的景色。這幾年接觸了自由潛水，非常喜歡，寧靜、克制、自知、冒險、還有責任。在刺青裡，也需要這樣的品質。
6. 您欣賞的刺青師或其他藝術家是誰？您為什麼欣賞他們？他們的作品對您的創作有何影響？
我很喜歡經典的藝術家，莫內和畢卡索在我的潛意識裡指引著我。然而我也熱愛唐卡藝術，它們顯性的吸引著我，畫師們需要先修行，才會畫出心裡的樣子，每個人將一樣又不一樣的相展現出來，慈祥平和、憤怒霸氣、各式型態，展現著宗教哲學的善巧與藝術。不過我也認為，其實每個人，每一片風景，都是藝術的一部分，我們和藝術無時無刻的緊密連結著，好吃的晚餐，幼稚園小朋友的笑聲，早餐店姊姊的溫柔，何嘗又不是打動人心的作品呢？
1. What is your tattoo style? What type of tattoos are you best at creating?
I call my style "Neo Being/Spiritualism." I excel in creating abstract, emotive, and symbolic tattoos. Sometimes, I even approach tattooing as a form of art therapy.
2. Where do you find inspiration? What inspires your creativity?
Inspiration comes from my life experiences and the emotions and insights they bring. Anything has the potential to inspire me, whether it's related to people or nature. Sometimes it's found in moments of stillness, dreams, or deep connections with loved ones. When I align with inspiration, it becomes a part of me.
3. What is the most challenging tattoo you have created? How did you overcome these challenges?
During my journey, I've faced spontaneous freehand tattooing without any preparation. When faced with limited resources, I immediately find alternatives. The key is maintaining a high level of trust and collaboration with the client, so that the tattooing process remains unaffected by external circumstances, whether it's a quiet or noisy environment. It requires keeping both myself and the client focused and relaxed.
4. What does tattooing mean to you? What role does it play a role in your life?
To me, tattooing represents dreams. Once those dreams are realized, tattoos become my companions, connecting me with the world. Throughout the tattooing process, I learn and practice the integration of movement and stillness, mastering control of my body and breath. When interacting with clients, I also discover countless fragments of souls, using them to heal one another and complete ourselves. Between the pain and damage caused by piercing the skin, I understand that sensations are neutral. Of course, the rewards that come with tattooing and personal growth are endless.
5. Besides tattooing, what hobbies or interests inspire your tattoo creations?
Music, nature, and traveling the world. I also enjoy water activities, especially being in the ocean, embraced by the sea while admiring the scenery above and below the surface. In recent years, I've been drawn to freediving, which I love for its tranquility, self-restraint, self-awareness, adventure, and responsibility. These qualities are also required in tattooing.
6. Who are some tattoo artists or other artists that you admire? Why do you admire them? How have their works influenced your own creations?
I deeply admire classic artists like Monet and Picasso, who guide my subconscious mind. However, I'm also fascinated by Thangka art, which has a strong pull on me. The painters need to undergo spiritual practice in order to depict the inner essence. Each person has their unique way of expression, including serene compassion, fierce determination, and various forms that demonstrate the subtlety and artistry of religious philosophy. Nevertheless, I believe that every person and every landscape is a part of art. We are constantly interconnected with art, whether it's the delightful dinner we enjoy, the laughter of children in kindergarten, or the warmth of a sister in a breakfast shop. These moments can be truly moving works of art.
