KNOCHENZIEHER — bone puller, bottentrekker, benutdragare, tireur d’os, arrancahuesos, cacciatore d’ossa.

I am a tattoo artist based in Amsterdam, professionally tattooing since 2018. My work lives in the space between ritual and image. Drawn to the mystical, the grotesque, and the unseen, I create tattoos that feel like fragments of something older—symbols without clear origin, bodies in transformation, forms that sit somewhere between decay and devotion.

I work primarily in black, building texture, contrast, and depth through detail and intuition. My designs often pull from folklore, anatomy, occult symbolism, and distorted natural forms—never clean, never perfect, always intentional.

Each piece is made in close collaboration. I’m not here to copy images—I’m here to translate ideas, moods, and obsessions into something that belongs to you. Something that feels unearthed rather than designed.

KNOCHENZIEHER is about tension: between beauty and discomfort, control and chaos.

If that resonates, you’re in the right place.
