It was artist John Maxx who, along with Florin Dobre, formed the Radical Ink Hall on April 11, 2011. The studio was still on Stirbei Voda Street until in March of 2014. And then, with the aim of taking on larger projects, it moved to Vasile Lascar Street where the team got bigger.
John’s idea was to elevate the art of tattoo in Romania to a superior level, both in terms of design creativity and in execution. Today, Radical Ink is home to a team of the best tattoo artists and designers living in Romania.

Lucian Tatar / Artist
Hello! My name is Lucian and I tattoo using the “dotwork” technique made with the help of the 3RL needle. I followed and continue to follow the creation of original realistic Black & Gray compositions executed at the highest level of detail using only the liner needle.
I have been tattooing professionally since 2017, and currently you can find me at Radical Ink Tattoo Studio located in Bucharest, Romania. I have been working here as a resident artist since 2020.
