Sacred Geometry · Mandalas · Ornamental Blackwork
Samsara Tattoo Studio is a premium tattoo & piercing sanctuary nestled in the vibrant heart of Poblacion, Manila. Founded by Tristan Cornelis — a Belgian-Filipino artist whose craft bridges two cultures and a lifetime of artistic exploration.
The name "Samsara" — the eternal cycle of life, death, and rebirth — reflects Tristan's philosophy: every tattoo is a transformative journey, a permanent mark of intention, growth, and self-expression.
Specializing in mandalas, sacred geometry, ornamental blackwork, dotwork, and fine line artistry, Tristan's work is known for its breathtaking precision, intricate symmetry, and designs that flow harmoniously with the body's natural contours.
Hypnotic circular designs symbolizing wholeness, balance, and the cosmos — rendered with mesmerizing precision.
Mathematical patterns found in nature — Flower of Life, Metatron's Cube, golden ratios brought to life on skin.
Bold, flowing black patterns that follow the body's anatomy — large-scale pieces that make a powerful statement.
Thousands of meticulously placed dots creating depth, shading, and texture — a meditative art form demanding extreme patience.
Delicate, precise single-needle work — botanical drawings, portraits, and minimalist designs with extraordinary detail.
Professional body piercing services with premium jewelry — performed in a sterile, safe, and welcoming environment.
