TENGU Magic is more than just a brand. It is a fusion of art, mythology, and craftsmanship, inspired by the rich traditions of folklore and the timeless art of tattooing. But where does the name TENGU come from, and why does it represent the spirit of our brand?
Who Are the Tengu
Tengu are legendary figures often described as part human and part bird, with supernatural abilities. They are both protectors and tricksters, known as powerful spirits connected to martial arts, wisdom, and the hidden forces of nature.
Historically, they were believed to guard sacred places, challenging those who sought power without discipline while rewarding those who pursued mastery and knowledge. In many ways, they symbolize the rebellious spirit of artists, those who push boundaries, break conventions, and transform tradition into something new.
The Magic of Craft and Culture
TENGU Magic embodies this philosophy. It represents the mastery of an art form, blending tradition with creativity.
As a tattoo artist, I have traveled the world, drawing inspiration from different cultures and stories, but mythology has always held a special place in my journey. It speaks to the balance between discipline and chaos, tradition and innovation, just like tattooing itself.
Beyond ink, TENGU Magic expands into a world of craftsmanship that includes fragrances, jewelry, and clothing.
