Hi, my name’s Craig Teatime he/they. I’m the owner and tattooer at Aubergine Tattoo & Piercing Studio in Berlin-Neukölln. I’m originally from Ireland, and I’ve been living and tattooing in Berlin for the last 15 years. My specialties are color tattoos, cover-up tattoos, custom tattoos and nature and floral inspired tattoos, and I particularly enjoy creating individual pieces that are designed specifically for each person. What I really enjoy about being a tattoo artist in Berlin is meeting people who have their own ideas, stories and memories, and working together to turn those ideas into something special. I love organizing a consultation, sitting down with you, and finding a way to realise the potential of your idea while making sure the final tattoo feels completely personal and fitted exactly to you. I usually start with a free tattoo consultation, where we sit together and chat about your project. We can talk through the ideas, design and placement, and I can give you more feedback in person about cost, timing and availability. A big part of what I love about tattooing is taking the special stories and experiences people have had, their memories and the things that mean the most to them, and putting them literally on their skin. Think of it as you bringing the idea, and me bringing the artistic side — and somewhere in the middle of this sandwich, we create the tattoo together. As a queer tattoo artist and studio owner, I’m also passionate about creating a welcoming and LGBTQ+ friendly tattoo studio in Neukölln, where everyone can feel comfortable bringing their ideas and being themselves. Although Aubergine has a strong queer identity, I welcome anyone looking for a friendly, collaborative and personal tattoo experience. I also offer piercing at the studio. If you’d like to work with me, click the booking link to arrange a free tattoo consultation, or send me a general email and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks so much, and I look forward to meeting you!

Hello, Marah here! I like to create a calm environment where my customers feel safe and taken care of. In 2020, after 4 years of working in the Graphic Design world, I started tattooing. My style is heavily influenced by Tim Burton, highlighting the beauty in darkness. I love finelines, smooth dotshading, eerieness and the feeling of a foggy autumn morning.

Animals

I’m a big fan of nature walks and a huge curious observer of the vast ocean of the internet, where information never ends. I’m very visual — tattooing is my language. My work revolves around colorful, powerful animals — either a single one or a mix of two or three. Bold, thick lines and strong primary colors define my style, rooted in traditional tattooing but reimagined in my own way. Each piece is created to connect people with their animal spirit. I believe instinct never disappears — tattooing is a way to bring it back to the surface.
