I’m Constanza Ballerines, known professionally as Constanza Tattoo, a Chilean tattoo artist based in New York City. Since 2019, my work has focused on creating surreal, emotionally driven pieces that weave symbolic and unexpected elements into cohesive visual narratives.

My practice is deeply inspired by poetry, music, lived experience, and the quiet strangeness of everyday life. I am currently based in New York and regularly travel as a guest artist to Chicago, Washington, D.C., and Hawaii.

My professional experience includes an exhibition at the Washington County Museum, a guest talk at Yale University, collaborations with brands such as La Roche-Posay, Yes Needles Cartridges, Pepax Needle, and Cheyenne Chile, and serving as a judge at Tattoo Geek Chile 2026.
