ABOUT

Atom Kaye is a tattoo artist, currently apprenticing at Body Graphics and No Ka Oi Tiki Tattoo. Their work focuses on traditional tattooing and those methods which have lasted the test of time. They explore designs and imagery that reflect a working-class ethos.

In the heart of South Philadelphia.

A constant WIP.

Atom Kaye is an alias for a modest but effective set of skills.

By nature, I’m an illustrator, focusing on the branding process - from sketchy ideation to POP moments of decision.

Through scholarship, I learned what it takes to advertise - to think creatively, sell an idea, and move the subconscious into action.

By trade, I’m a self-taught web designer. Sprinkle a little UX, throw in a pinch of UI, a dash of design… I think digital alchemy is the next best method of creating, right after illustrating.

I find inspiration in the dense foliage of nature and I find peace in a warm bowl of ramen.

MANIFESTO

Mightier than the sword, I’m your secret weapon. Sharper than your pocket knife. More versatile than your Swiss Army. Twice as nimble as the butterfly. I turn insights into illustrations. I’m constantly thinking about the most cunning, clever and creative way to solve problems.


Forget the spotlight. My work is in the shadows. I’m the behind-the-scenes. Behind the lines of code. Hidden under endless layers in Photoshop. I’m pulling strings while they sit in the limelight. I’ve got one mission and one mission only: Get the job done. Get it done right.
