Illustrative Pagan Black Work
Johanna Polle is a tattoo artist based in Braunschweig, Germany. Drawing from her extensive background as a professional visual artist and her personal exploration of pagan and occult symbolism, Johanna’s tattoos are their own kind of magic.
Johanna currently works as a resident artist in the tattoo parlor Schmierfink und Robird. Drawing from her extensive background as a professional visual artist and her personal exploration of pagan and occult symbolism, Johanna’s tattoos are their own kind of magic. Her unique style is best described as illustrative pagan black work.
Every tattoo is individually designed, drawn by hand, and inked with love and care. Tattooing in itself is a sacred ritual and an intimate dance between artist and client to commemorate life events, outwardly express personality, and tell our stories.
Tattooing is a form of art, and thus an expression of human experience. There is no place for generative AI in this traditional and inherently handmade process. All of Johanna’s tattoos and artworks are 100% handmade, and created to resonate deeply with their recipients. Browse through Johanna’s tattoo portfolio below and book an appointment here.
