Medicine Festival · 2026
Every artist holds a different practice. Explore their work, connect with the one who resonates with you, and reserve your session before the festival.
ENTER THE TEMPLE
The Tattoo Temple is home to a carefully curated collective of international tattoo artists, each offering their own unique practice.
Rather than choosing a tattoo, you begin by choosing an artist. Take your time exploring each practice, connect with the work that resonates with you, and book your session directly before the festival.
All Tattoo Temple artists work to professional hygiene standards and use sterile, single-use equipment. As the festival takes place outdoors, Second Skin will be available for anyone who would like additional protection for their fresh tattoo while moving around the festival.
Please follow the aftercare guidance provided by your artist to ensure the best possible healing.

TALISMAN CEREMONY
by Manuela Baldin
The Project
Honoring the body, revealing the self.
Rather than a design chosen from a catalog, Manuela works from your intention and what she senses in your time together. She draws your symbols within the ceremony itself, as a form of psychography, giving shape to what is already alive within you.
The Talisman that emerges becomes a prayer eternalised in your skin, marking a threshold you have already crossed within, or one you are crossing.
She works with an ancestral technique called handpoke, tattooing dot by dot, by hand, guided by the rhythm of life. She uses Quartz crystals as the support for the needles, sustainably sourced from crystal beds in Brazil — ancient beings whose structure carries a coherence that grounds the entire exchange between prayer, ink, and skin.
This slower rhythm tends to be gentler on the nervous system, and your body receives it differently than it receives a machine.
Every session follows the same hygiene and sterilization protocol required of any professional tattoo practice: single-use needles, medical-grade disinfection, and full compliance with international safety standards.
Meet the Artist
Manuela is a Brazilian ceremonial tattoo artist based in Lisbon, with ten years dedicated to this practice.
Her path was shaped by plant medicine ceremonies, indigenous initiations, women's circles, and years of study in the realms of psychology, natural medicine and somatic work.
She holds each ceremony as a devotion to the Earth, rooted in animism and in the understanding that the body carries its own intelligence.
Her Talismans have traveled with her across Latin America, Asia and Europe — born always from connection, never from the mind.

HANDPOKE
by Skye
The Project
Adorn your skin with your prayers and intentions.
Weaving alongside the elements, Skye offers handpoke tattoos as an intentional journey — to invoke your prayers and honour your story onto your skin.
She offers an elemental blessing to clear the pathways for your intention to come to life before marking your skin with your sacred adornment or magic sigil.
Meet the Artist
Skye is a ceremonial tattooist, energy worker and medicine woman. Her work is deeply connected and inspired by the elements, nature, sacred symbols and birthed in relationship with the Celtic lands of Scotland where she is from.

RITUAL
by Ashlah Satini
The Project
Forestania is an evolving body of work...
Forestania was born from a dialogue between the Brazilian forest, ancestral symbolism, and the unseen energies that live within us.
Its language is woven through the living pulse of red — earth, blood, ancestry, and the force that animates all life.
Every symbol emerges from a conversation with nature and silence. Some symbols arrive before we understand them. Others reveal themselves only when the time is right.
Whether choosing a piece from the collection or creating one together, the process is never about decoration — it is about recognition. Finding the image that feels strangely familiar, as though it had been waiting for you all along.
The symbol does not become meaningful because you wear it. You wear it because, somehow, it was already part of your story.
Meet the Artist
Ashlah Satini is a Brazilian ritualist and tattoo artist whose path has been shaped through more than a decade of Afro-Brazilian initiations, ceremony, and the study of ancestral symbolism.
Her work is guided by the understanding that symbols are living forces — capable of opening pathways, anchoring intentions, and guiding us through life's transformations.
Weaving the soul's divine narrative through art.










VALUE
Every piece is unique. Pricing is based on design complexity, size, and the creative process involved.

HANDPOKE
by Emily
The Project
Skin Story Tattoos
The design process is always a collaboration between you and Emily, to illustrate your unique life story — weaving together symbolism, personal meaning, and visual reminders that become an illustrated skin story to wear on your earth suit.
Every tattoo is created with your intentions at its heart and carefully hand-tapped into the skin with presence, care, and love. And naturally, every one is uniquely different.
For her, the experience of receiving a tattoo is just as important as the finished piece itself. She adapts each tattoo ceremony to honour your individual needs and wishes, creating a space that feels personal, grounded, and meaningful.
She holds deep gratitude for this art form, its lineage, and the opportunity, after many years, to still continue practicing it with respect, love and joy.
Meet the Artist
Emily has been studying and working as a traditional tattooist since 2013.
Her journey began in northern Thailand, where she studied bamboo tattooing under two masters.
Today, she works using a handpoke technique — still completely by hand, and without a machine. She loves this slower, more connective approach, which creates a gentle tattooing experience.

HANDPOKE
by Adisa
The Project
Ceremonial Tattoos
Adisa creates ceremonial handpoke tattoos that honour your story, your intentions, and the chapter of life you are currently walking through.
Drawing inspiration from nature, symbolism, ancestry and personal transformation, each design is created uniquely for you — a meaningful mark that reflects your own journey, rather than something chosen from a catalogue.
Using the traditional handpoke technique, every piece is tattooed slowly, one dot at a time, leaving space for presence, connection and intention to move through the entire process.
Meet the Artist
Hi, I'm Adisa.
I'm a ceremonial handpoke tattoo artist creating intentional, meaningful tattoos inspired by nature, symbolism, ancestry and personal transformation.
I believe every tattoo should feel deeply personal — and each piece is designed to reflect the unique story of the person receiving it.

HANDPOKE
by Natasha Creaton
The Project
Offering hand-poked tattoos as prayers and activations on the body.
Each ceremony is held as a gentle ritual — a safe and intentional space to honour your story, mark a threshold, and anchor an intention into your skin.
Every tattoo is intuitively designed as a unique expression of your soul, woven from your prayers, personal journey and deepest intentions.
Using the ancestral art of hand poke, Natasha has spent eight years creating delicate, bespoke tattoos that invite presence, remembrance, and connection — leaving you with a living prayer woven into your skin.
Meet the Artist
Natasha is an artist from England, half Brazilian and half English, bringing qualities of both cultures through in her work.
Learning from nature, indigenous peoples and ancient practices, her tattoos reflect these aspects — honouring the patterns and inspiration of nature herself.
Living cyclically, foraging herbs and food, learning from plants and trees, and surfing whenever possible, Natasha loves to be immersed in nature and allow it to guide her path.
Based in Dorset in the UK and Brazil in the winter months, she lives between these two places, tending to her ancestral homes.






VALUE
Tattoos are estimated in terms of the hours needed for the session, at £200 p/h. The amount of hours is determined by the size, placement and detail. By sharing your ideas and the size / placement, I can let you know how many hours would be needed and what you feel like booking in for. For Medicine Festival there will be no 1-hour time slots available due to set-up time and the nature of tattooing at a festival. I'll be providing some limited flash designs for a more affordable option at £180 — these will be shared soon and will go to the first person who books once tattooed. 1 hour — £200 (2–3 cm) 2 hours — £400 (5–8 cm) 3 hours — £600 (8–12 cm) 4 hours — £800 (12–20 cm)

Meet the Artist

HANDPOKE
by Lily Eff
The Project
Hand-poked with love.
I believe that tattoos that are made with love and intention heal better with your body. I specialise in creating personalised experiences — holding space for both lightness and laughter, depth and duality.
A people person by nature, I love connecting with curious souls and creating art to last you a lifetime.
Meet the Artist
I'm Lily (she/her), a queer babe welcoming all bodies, all skin tones, any scarring and all neurodivergences.
I've been hand-poking for 15 years so I know tattoos can mean as much or as little as you want them to, but your experience is just as important either way.
My style varies from bold abstracts, intricate ornamentals and texts to botanicals. I'm a sucker for flowing feminine forms and hug tattoos too! Always happy to take customs — I love bringing your ideas to life.









VALUE
£120–£150 per hour, or set price per piece. Final price depends on final design, size and placement.
