About the Studio

Founded in 2022, Studio 12 opened its doors in the San Telmo neighborhood, Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, with the mission of sharing the art of tattooing from a contemporary perspective, without losing the values that define it as a craft.

The studio maintains constant updating and training, with the objective of offering a service according to the expectations and needs of each client.

At Studio 12 we work under high standards of hygiene, safety and professionalism. We use state-of-the-art equipment and apply strict sanitary protocols to guarantee a safe, careful and comfortable experience in each session.

My search in tattooing is to achieve delicate and neat tattoos, with great value in details. I give them a dark aura, which is my personal brand.

I am from San Telmo and all my work is done with dots. I dedicate myself to making pieces with a lot of symbolic charge for each client and my challenge is to create pieces with the ornamental Buenos Aires aesthetic.

My artistic search comes from everyday inspirations, the textures and movements that the things we see and feel have in order to reach an abstraction of that.

Realism & Argentine Culture

4 years of experience of experience

I am 21 years old and my artistic search is focused on traditional Argentine culture, music and football. I am devoted to the search for meaning and purpose, and I try to immortalize symbols on the skin through realism in dialogue with minimalism and graphic design.

Ayelen Vera Echegaray

I’ve been tattooing for over 10 years. You can find me in Buenos Aires and Córdoba. In tattooing, I focus on developing the composition as a whole and preserving the original, foundational premise of tattooing. I specialize in large-scale pieces designed to interact with the entire body. My style is based on black and grey and color work, oriented toward realism and illustrative approaches, drawing inspiration from neo-traditional concepts.

Lucas Ghilardi

10 years tattooing. Within my style, my approach is both formal and conceptual, always considering the relationship between each piece and the logic and movement of the human body. In this way, I integrate the dynamism of forms, light and shadow, applying them to every element, story, or being within a dark and expressive universe.

Tomás Chiecchio

I’ve been tattooing for 11 years. On a professional level, what I seek and express through tattooing is for each person who chooses my art to take with them a unique, original, and deeply symbolic piece—from the very first sketch to the final tattoo. The fact that someone chooses my designs is something I once thought was impossible. I strive for tattooing to be more than a superficial act, but rather a conscious and meaningful experience.

Clara Bajicoff

I’ve been tattooing for 2 years. As a designer who tattoos, I focus on translating elements and forms from everyday life, highlighting the beauty in simple things and transforming them into something like permanent jewelry on the skin.

Malena Chiesino

My approach to tattooing is conceptual, prioritizing linework and symbolism. I integrate anatomy with design, aiming for a clean and coherent visual flow.
