About the Item

Artist: , Kozo Title: Nostalgic Tides/The Beauty of Chaos Date: 2025 Medium: Lithograph with Tattoo ink & acrylics on paper Unframed Dimensions: 30" x 22" Framed Dimensions: 33.75" x 25.75" Signature: Pencil signed Edition: 9-25/25 KOZO works in numbered, unique variant, series where the hand applied tattoo elements differ on each piece in the edition. Tattoos shown on listing are for edition 9/25 Kozo is a young artist famous for his colored micro-realism tattoos. He developed a quick fascination of art, beginning as a student of the arts through his elementary years, drawing, sculpting and painting for years before trying a new sort of canvas— human skin. Kozo picked up a tattoo machine for the first time at 17 and hasn't quit since. He is self-taught, and his first clients were his willing friends in his own bedroom, with a machine he bought off of eBay. In 2020, after seven years of practice, he moved to New York City to pursue his dreams and currently works at Bang Bang Tattoo. He is known to have inked many high profile celebrities, making him one of the most celebrated and biggest names in the tattoo industry. He has become a worldwide sensation, with over one million followers on Instagram. Now, Kozo returns to his origins as an artist. He brings his pop culture tattoo designs that took social media by storm back to traditional mediums such as canvas and paper, to create unique, one-of-a-kind masterpieces for each client. His art is known for its steady lines, smooth gradients, precise detail, and gorgeous micro tattoo creations. His designs are said to be minimalistic as he believes less is more, but aims to tell stories and bridge connections among people and cultures. He is inspired by traditional painters such as Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Jacques-Louis David for their paintings, as well as their persistence and work ethic. He also derives much inspiration from traveling, specifically to South Korea and is heavily influenced by Korean culture and artists. He has mastered this style and continues to learn from Old Masters, up-and-coming artists and new experiences, becoming a leader in the current culture of contemporary art.
