Xoïl

FRENCH TATTOO ARTIST

A MAN OF HIS CRAFT FOR OVER 20 YEARS. DUE TO NO FORMAL TRAINING HE HAS SELF-TAUGHT AND DEVELOPED MULTIPLE DISCIPLINES.

HE IS KEEPING HIS HISTORY OF TATOUAGE ALIVE WITH HIS FLASH ARTWORK, HANDPOKE, AND DOING PERFORMANCE ART WITH 7-MINUTES TATTOOING.

HE IS MOST KNOWN FOR HIS DIGITAL COLLAGE AND BEING ONE OF THE FIRST PIONEERS OF GRAPHIC TATTOOING.

XOIL, FREED FROM ALL THE RULES, IN HIS FRANTIC AND GLORIOUS WANDERING, EMBODIES THIS BEAUTIFUL SENTENCE OF THEOPHILE GAUTIER :

THE STRONGEST MAN FEELS INSTINCTIVELY THAT IT IS THE ORNAMENT WHICH DRAWS AN IMPERMEABLE LINE BETWEEN HIM AND THE ANIMAL, AND WHEN HE CAN NOT EMBROIDER HIS CLOTHES, HE EMBROIDERS HIS SKIN.
