ABOUT THIS DESING:
PLACEMENT : BACK / SIZE : depending on clients back
The price is 200 euro per session
The project depending on the back size and pain tolerance should be able to be completed in 6/8 hours.
FaccioFacce (Italian for “I make faces”) is a project born from chance, movement, and instinct.
The idea began while I was traveling extensively around the world. Moving through cities, trains, streets, and crowds, I constantly found myself surrounded by faces. My brain started absorbing them unconsciously: expressions, silhouettes, tensions, emotions. I was both part of the crowd and its observer, a quiet collector of faces.
One day I found a bundle of discarded advertising prints on the street. They were produced on extremely smooth photographic paper, and throwing them away felt like a waste. So I picked them up, grabbed a Molotow marker with its iconic 5 cm tip, and started drawing.
In about one hour I produced 50 drawings.
The rule was simple: draw in a state of pure flow. No planning, no judgment, no deciding what was beautiful or not. Just let the faces appear. Each one emerged directly from the stream of consciousness, guided only by movement and instinct.
The result is a series of fluid, dynamic faces. A drawing is technically static, yet these faces never seem to rest. They feel as if they are constantly shifting, moving, dissolving, and reforming.
Later, this series inspired a tattoo project based on the same spirit. Each face is meant to be tattooed on a different person’s back, offered at a very reduced price so the collection can grow organically.
Once all the faces are tattooed, the final piece will come together: all the participants will be invited to sit in a circle with their backs facing inward, each person linking arms with the next to form a human chain. I will then film the circle while slowly rotating around it, revealing the living gallery of faces that once existed only on paper.
What began as spontaneous marks on found paper will eventually become a moving, human sculpture of faces.
Deposit
Deposits are normally non-refundable. However, the deposit may be transferred to another available appointment without an expiration date.
Fifty percent of the deposit may be refunded only under the following conditions:
- The client informs the artist or studio at least 72 hours before the scheduled tattoo appointment. The refund process begins only after the cancellation has been received and confirmed by the studio.
- The client has a medical condition, illness, or medical contraindication that makes receiving the tattoo unsafe or impossible. Reasonable confirmation from a medical professional may be requested. The client is not required to disclose their diagnosis.
- The client is affected by the hospitalisation, death, or serious medical emergency of an immediate family member or a person under their care.
- The client has been involved in an accident or another serious and documented emergency outside their reasonable control.
- The client is prevented from attending because of a documented force-majeure event, such as a major transport shutdown, natural disaster, or official travel restriction.
The remaining fifty percent of the deposit is retained to compensate the artist for administrative work, appointment preparation, design work, and the reserved appointment time.
Work obligations, financial difficulties, changes of mind, holidays, scheduling conflicts, oversleeping, and ordinary transport delays do not qualify for a refund. In these circumstances, the deposit may still be transferred to a rescheduled appointment.
When the artist or studio cancels the appointment and cannot provide a reasonable replacement appointment, the client will receive a full refund of the deposit.
