Japanese Tattoos

Drawn For You, Not Picked Off a Wall. Japanese and Irezumi tattoos, sleeves, back pieces, bodysuits.

Japanese work is a language, motifs like koi, dragons, hannya, waves, peonies and chrysanthemums each carry meaning, and how they flow across the body matters as much as how they look up close. At Hibernia Tattoo in Surry Hills, our Japanese work starts with a conversation and a plan: your story first, then the motifs that carry it, then a design built for how it will age. Our artists work large-scale custom full sleeves, half sleeves, back pieces and bodysuits, drawn for your body, not assembled from a catalogue.

What Japanese work at Hibernia looks like:
· Freehand and drawn-to-fit designs, mapped to your anatomy
· Traditional and contemporary irezumi
· Single or Multi-session projects planned around your budget and schedule
· Cover-ups and reworkings of older Japanese pieces
