Roxx

Roxx is a British-American tattoo artist known for recognizable blackout and blackwork and for celebrity clients including Machine Gun Kelly and Ricky Martin. [1] [2]

Roxx's work was included in the 2018 MoMa exhibit "Items: Is Fashion Modern?", [3] on the cover of Bodies of Subversion: A Secret History of Women and Tattoo by Margot Mifflin, and in Black Tattoo Art 2 by Marisa Kakoulas (2013). She appeared in the 2023 documentary The Colour of Ink, discussing making her own ink and her artistic approach.

She does not work from templates and designs tattoos directly on clients' bodies. She has described her approach as spiritual or therapeutic for clients who are looking to mark a change or alter their relationship to their bodies. [4]
