Quiet. Conscious. Intentional.

Handpoke markings for life’s meaningful moments.

I believe some moments deserve to be carried with us.

For thousands of years, people have marked life’s transitions through tattooing—not simply as decoration, but as a way of honouring a story, a commitment or a new beginning.

Through slow, intentional handpoke tattooing, I create meaningful markings that invite presence, connection and remembrance.

Testimonials

"The handpoke tattoo I received from Chakana Rituals was a truly transformative experience. I felt a deep connection to myself and the art."

"William created a custom design that perfectly captured my essence. The process was incredibly healing and I'm in love with my tattoo."

"I can't recommend William enough. The intuitive design he created for me surpassed all my expectations. Thank you for the beautiful experience."

"If you're looking for a meaningful tattoo experience, Chakana Rituals is the place to go. Their artistry and attention to detail are unmatched."

"Although I wasn't initially seeking a ceremonial tattoo experience, I found myself deeply moved by the ceremony guided by William. His unique approach and beautiful energy made the whole process incredibly special. I must admit, I was simply drawn to his remarkable tattoo style, but the ceremony added an unexpected layer of meaning and connection. The final tattoo exceeded my expectations and serves as a constant reminder of this unforgettable journey. Highly recommend, whether you're seeking a ceremonial experience or simply admire his art."

A space to arrive

The environment we create together is just as important as the tattoo itself.

Most of my sessions take place in my jungle studio, a quiet space surrounded by nature where there is room to slow down, arrive, and leave the outside world behind for a while.

If it feels more aligned, I’m also happy to bring the experience to your own home. Together we create a calm and intentional setting where you can feel comfortable and fully present.

Wherever we meet, we begin in the same way.

With a conversation.

We take time to listen to your story, explore the meaning behind your tattoo, and allow the design to emerge naturally before the first dot is placed.

I believe that meaningful work asks for our full attention.

Not because we need to make the moment extraordinary, but because the moments that shape our lives deserve to be met with care.

I feel a deep connection with the Chakana symbol and with the Quechua people. The Chakana Symbol, or Andean Cross, is a powerful symbol from the Andean region, particularly the Incas. It comprises a square with four extending arms representing cardinal directions and realms of existence. Symbolizing harmony and interconnectedness, it holds deep spiritual significance, embodying the unity of the cosmos and the interdependence of all beings.

In the Quechua language, “chakana” is a blend of two words “chaka” meaning bridge and “hanan” meaning tall. The Inca believed that the Chakana was a bridge between the three worlds; the world of Gods, the world of Man; or Earth, and the world of the Dead; or the spiritual realm, which is why each side of the chakana is a 3-stepped pyramid.

The Incas believed that everything is connected to Mother Earth, or Pachamama, and she is in the center of everything with only a circular hole cut out in the middle representing the Sun god, or a portal to the unknown.
