The Ink Story studio in Kristiansand
Ink Story was started by Maxim Kontozis, a tattoo artist from Cyprus who built his career through years of travelling, learning and tattooing people from every background. It did not begin as a polished brand concept — it began as an obsession with tattooing and a decision to build a studio where art, professionalism and respect for clients matter more than looking trendy. Today Ink Story is a cross-country brand with studios in Kristiansand and Larnaca. Every tattoo here carries a story: a memory, a person, a new beginning — and it should still make sense years from now.
