Exploring the relationship between the body, and graphic expression through custom blackwork and contemporary tattooing. Every piece begins as a conversation and ends as something permanent.
About · AQUATICO
I'm Alina Kiltra — tattoo artist working under the name AQUATICO. My practice focuses on custom blackwork and contemporary tattooing — creating pieces that engage with the body, move with it, and respect its anatomy rather than simply being placed on top of it.
Every tattoo begins with an honest conversation. I'm drawn to depth, contrast, and the natural forms that already exist within each person's body.
Before becoming a tattoo artist, I spent several years traveling internationally as a circus performer, specializing in aerial hoop. Through studying the history and traditions of circus performance, I discovered some of my strongest influences: figures such as the contortionist and the world's most tattooed person, where the tattooed body becomes a living artwork brought to life through movement.
From this perspective emerged Solid Projects, an ongoing exploration of the relationship between mind, body, and movement: tattooing as an expression of the mind, the body as a solid form, and the aquatic as a symbol of transformation and fluidity.
Work with me →How it works
Tell me about your idea — the concept, the placement, references that move you. We'll talk through it by message or video call, no rush.
Every piece is drawn from scratch for your body. I never reuse designs. The image is developed through the lens of graphic expression and natural form.
A focused, considered environment. We work at the pace the piece demands — quality over speed, always.
I'm available throughout the healing process and for any touch-up the work needs. The piece isn't finished until it's settled into the skin.
Book a session
I work by appointment only, with limited availability each month to keep the quality of every piece where it needs to be. Reach out to start the conversation — no idea is too rough to share.
