Born in one of Egypt’s most historic cities, Eraqe was surrounded by the echoes of ancient art and spirituality from an early age. Growing up in a place rich with history, he developed a deep connection to Egyptian heritage, fueling his passion for art in all its forms. This passion led him to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts, specializing in sculpture, drawn by his love for ancient Egyptian culture, its artistic legacy, and the spiritual practices that shaped a civilization. But traditional art forms never felt like enough. Compared to tattooing, they seemed confined—trapped within walls and limits. Eraqe craved movement, expression beyond galleries and statues. He saw tattooing as the purest form of living art, an extension of history that walks, breathes, and evolves with the person wearing it. With no formal tattoo education available in Egypt, Eraqe embarked on a nine-year self-taught journey, mastering the craft from the ground up. He became a pioneer, spreading his ink to those who truly appreciate the power of ancient Egyptian symbols and spiritual art. His style focuses on realism and fine-line realism, creating designs that carry not just aesthetics, but meaning—helping people express themselves through the timeless energy of ancient symbols. Every tattoo begins with a consultation, ensuring each piece resonates deeply with the individual, turning skin into a canvas for stories, beliefs, and powerful energies. Beyond being a tattoo artist, Eraqe is a mentor and educator, playing a vital role in shaping Egypt’s tattoo scene. Through workshops and training sessions, he has helped countless Egyptian artists refine their skills and master the craft, pushing tattooing in Egypt to a professional level. For Eraqe, tattooing isn’t just ink on skin—it’s a bridge between the past and present, a way to carry the essence of ancient Egypt into the modern world. Every piece he creates is more than a tattoo; it’s a piece of history, a symbol of identity, and a mark of something far greater than just art.
