Tattoo Artist: Sergey Bardadim
Sergey, a.k.a.George, Bardadim is a Russian born tattoo artist. He began his career when he did his first tattoo at the age of 17 using only a needle and thread. Maybe it wasn’t exactly the beginning of a career – but it was the first step. His friends wanted him to do tattoos for them and this eventually led to him creating his first machine.
Part of his tattoo background is in building machines from materials that were available. He experimented with frame design and different mechanisms. George says that during the years of experimenting with machines, he gained quite a bit of his tattooing experience.
Bardadim has worked in Austria, Germany, the UK, and, of course, Russia.
