I am preparing to launch an ARG (Alternate Reality Game) through my Instagram. Codes, and fragments of a story will be scattered across my posts. Only those who pay close attention will be able to follow the path… and unlock secrets... #ARG #artgame #mystery #cryptic #blackart #alternatehistory

Exploring forms. Between shadow and clarity. Between matter and myth. #art #darkart #tattoo #blackwork #illustration #gaelricci #engraving

The skin remembers what the soul cannot name. Every line a door, every shadow a vow. #tattoo #darktattoo #blackwork #occulttattoo #gaelriccidot

13 years of tattoos! Each line, each shadow, is a dialogue between pain and meaning — between the body that endures, and the spirit that demands expression. This is not decoration. This is a ritual of identity #tattoo #art #painting #dotwork #gaelricci

Painter, engraver, tattoo artist. Disabled after a surgical error, I fight pain every day. My art is born from endurance — turning suffering into myth, and matter into symbols. I am new here, add me! 🙂 #Surrealism, #Mythology, #TattooArt, #gaelricci, #oilpainting
