After living in the country for the last decade, idexa finally rejoined the city to be her home base again. She dedicates the first three days of the week to work, the fourth to music and other art forms and the rest to raising her 2 amazing and wild kids.

Idexa has a multinational reputation for innovative design and precision. A versatile tattoo artist, Idexa specializes in black work, geometric patterns, scientific imagery and organically inspired designs. Prospective customers are invited to acquaint themselves with the range and quality of the artist's work by looking through her photo-books.

Idexa has worked in a variety of media but finds working on skin the most satisfying, as only tattooing allows her to work with the unique forms of each body. Most pieces are drawn directly on the skin, allowing for a unique collaboration between the artist, the customer, and the customer's body.

To Idexa tattooing is a means of self-transformation through art. One could think of tattooing as a way of making the outside of the body look more the way it feels from the inside. Idexa is especially interested in this personal, spiritual experience, and her customers appreciate her attention to detail and to their individual needs.

If you are interested in Idexa's style and approach, you are welcome to set up a time to come in and talk to her by calling her cell phone 415-516-1974 and/or emailing her at id3xa@yahoo.com.

Idexa tattoos on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays with flexible hours. She has an $200 minimum/hourly tattoo fee and a $150 per hour charge for drawing on the body. She does not believe in cover-ups, but enjoys reworking and/or extending old pieces.
