I go by two different names: Vi and Noly. Originally from Brazil but living in Europe for half of my 30 years between the Amalfi Coast, northern Portugal and Berlin. I am a multimedia artist and tattooist who has always been enchanted by flowers. They are my favourite subject to illustrate and tattoo. Being self-taught, I started doing art in realism/hyperrealism graphite portraits which led me to tattooing and embrace it as a career. I love working with my hands and I come from a family or artist (ceramists, woodcrafters) so eventually I began to explore linocut, embroidery with beads, painting, bas-relief and cold clay sculpture.
