The Barcelona Tattoo Expo has been, for more than two decades, the most important tattoo art festival in southern Europe. We have been there from the beginning — as the organisation’s official photographers, edition after edition.

Tattooing is an art you live on your skin, in every sense. Photographing it means entering a world of masters, schools, traditions that travel across continents and converge in Barcelona’s exhibition halls three days a year.

We have documented the tattooists’ collections, competitions, audiences, guest artists. We watched the festival grow, change its name and format — from the classic Barcelona Tattoo Expo to the BAUM festival — without losing its essence: a place where body art is treated with the respect it deserves.

The relationship with the organisation has been one of mutual trust and continuous collaboration over many years. We have always felt part of the project, not merely service providers.
