The anchoring of a tattoo goes beyond the symbol on your skin; it is a powerful and ancient way to ritualize, mark a passage, a transition, a space for healing, a time to honor your journey.

This is a moment when your skin is open to receive new codes, new information.

This is a time of intimacy where the space is held for you to feel safe, loved, honored and where you can allow yourself to journey deep through your layers.

Your skin is a portal,
the threshold that bridges worlds,
the seen and the unseen.

It is where the story of your past meets what hasn’t been written yet,

THE ANCIENT WAY


Tattooing is an ancient practice that sis found across many cultures and has been used for thousands of years. In many ancient traditions, tattoos were not just decorative but served as rites of passage, symbols of protection, or marks of spiritual connection.
From the tribal tattoos of the Māori in New Zealand to the sacred markings of Egyptian priests, tattooing was a way to honor one’s place in the world, connect with ancestors, or invoke divine power. These tattoos were often seen as a bridge between the physical and spiritual realms, holding sacred meanings passed down through generations. The practice of tattooing, in its most ancient form, carries with it a deep sense of reverence and intention that is still honored in many cultures today.

My practice is not derived from a specific tradition, however, my intention is to remember the sacredness of the act.

Handpoke is a tattooing technique done with a needle and ink, without the use of a machine.

It is a gentler method for the skin, with a slower process — a ritual where ancient technique merges with modern approach, honoring the sacred purpose of tattooing while opening a space for deep healing.

  • "A tattoo ceremony with Camille is an authentic appointment. Upon my arrival, an altar dedicated to the intention set during our prior conversation awaited me. Camille opened the space with both gentleness and firmness. I felt safe. The day was prepared with awareness and presence; Camille was fully available during this moment that expanded and wrapped around time like a growing, ascending spiral. The tattoo session was followed by an integration moment, which facilitated the connection between the physical inking and the energetic anchoring. An exceptional moment that I recommend to anyone wishing to go beyond the surface. Thank you, Camille, and safe travels!"

  • "A beautiful inner journey, but also through the earth and the sky, guided with complete kindness and acceptance by Camille. An anchoring with a thousand facets and words filled with complementary and magical oppositions. A thousand thanks to you, Camille, for this encounter, this beautiful energy, and the space created to welcome me in my fullness and authenticity ✨"

    Leticia (translated from french)

  • "Go experience a tattoo ceremony with Camille; it's not just about getting another tattoo. Above all, it's about experiencing a time of connection—a time of connection with yourself, a time of connection with Camille, a time of connection with the cosmos. Camille takes the time not only to welcome us but also to ensure that the tattoo is as aligned as possible for us. There’s no rush, no timeline; it’s a time outside of linear time where a connection with something greater can occur! Thank you, Camille, for these sacred spaces that you open, carry, and create!"
