Minimalist tattoo artists

Minimalist tattoo

Where it comes from

Minimalist tattoos follow the minimalist art and design movement, which strips a subject to its essentials. The style became very popular in the 2010s, often as a first tattoo.

What it looks like

Small, simple designs with few lines and lots of empty space: single-line drawings, small symbols, outlines and tiny script.

What it represents

Personal meaning with a quiet look. A small mark that matters to the wearer without needing to be explained.
