About Wase
I graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts at the prestigious Marmara University. However, a fascination with the raw energy of the streets and urban art soon led me away from classical canvases to large-scale murals and tattooing.
This contrast between academic precision and untamed street art defines my signature style.
Over the years, I have had the honor of collaborating on visual campaigns for global leaders such as Adidas, Samsung, Vodafone, and Levi’s….
where I blended corporate visions with authentic street art.
Tattoo Philosophy
Custom design only. No Pinterest copies.
In my work, I pride myself on absolute precision and one-hundred-percent originality.

I specialize exclusively in bespoke, custom-designed tattoos. If you have an idea, we will sit down together in my mountain studio and develop it into a unique design created solely for you.
Do not look for exact copies of tattoos from Pinterest, Instagram, or other tattoo artists here – I do not copy other people’s work. Your skin deserves an original piece of art that carries your personal story and my academic precision.
7 years in the heart of Europe
Life took me to the Czech Republic, right into the heart of Europe, for seven years. This period fundamentally shaped my worldview and my art itself.
Working in a European creative environment, encountering a different culture, and collaborating with local and international entities (including projects for E.ON Czech Republic) gave me a fresh perspective.

The Czech Republic became my second home, a place of inspiration, and a space where I consolidated my position on the international art scene.
Return to the roots and the call of the wild mountains
After years spent in European metropolises, I decided to return to Turkey, but not to noisy Istanbul.
I found my new home and a safe creative haven deep in the peaceful mountains above Fethiye, in the Seydikemer region.
Right here, surrounded by wild nature, I am renovating an old house and turning it with my own hands into a living piece of art.
I am leaving my artistic footprint within its walls and building a space where my soul and artistic expression can breathe freely, without the limits of the modern world.
Wase Village Project
I believe that art has the power to transform not only buildings but also places and communities.
My long-term goal is to turn our village into an open-air gallery under the sky.
Over time, large-scale murals, artistic paintings, and original installations will be created, connecting the local environment with modern art and creating a unique experience for both residents and visitors.

This is not just about painting walls. The goal is to create a place where people will come for inspiration, culture, and an authentic atmosphere. Every new piece will be part of a bigger story, together creating a gallery accessible to everyone.
The project will come to life gradually, in cooperation with the local community, partners, and supporters who share the same vision. Every bit of support will help transform another part of the village into a work of art.
This is not a one-time event. It is a long-term vision aimed at showing that art can change public space, bring new opportunities, and create a place that people will be proud of.
