Polynesian tattooing in Western Sydney
Polynesian tattooing is a language before it is an aesthetic. The panels are arranged to say something specific — family, origin, protection, the work you do — and reading correctly matters more than looking busy.

Questions from Western Sydney
- What do the motifs mean?
- Enata represent people, spearheads strength and protection, ocean and shell forms journey and shelter. Which ones belong in your piece is decided together.
- Can I get Polynesian work if I'm not Polynesian?
- In most cases yes. Certain motifs are reserved by right and won't be used — if what you've asked for isn't yours to wear, you'll be told so and offered something that is.
- How many sessions does a sleeve take?
- Typically three to five, spaced two to three weeks apart so each stage heals properly.
