gabe köhler
Gabe Köhler is an Indigenous contemporary tattoo and visual artist from Brazil, now based in Berlin. Growing up surrounded by the forest, he carries the textures of nature as his first and deepest reference. His work is rooted in these organic forms, distilled into visceral blackwork that feels alive and poetic.
With almost 14 years of tattooing and nearly two decades in painting, Gabe sees each piece as an intimate journey. His process begins with listening, understanding each person’s story and sharing a part of his own, so that what is created together becomes more than an image on the skin, but a soulful dialogue between body and spirit.
