Maua Tattoo

Ornamental Mastery

Maua’s tattoos are like permanent jewelry flowing, intricate, and perfectly placed. Inspired by Indian and Arab traditions, she creates patterns that feel as though they’ve always belonged to your body.

Her process begins by listening really listening to your story. With patience and precision, she blends geometry and organic flow until your tattoo moves with you as naturally as the tide. Many return years later to expand their designs, trusting Maua to weave new stories into the old.

For me, every line is a prayer of patience and precision.” Maua..

INKSTRAKT (Enna)

Abstract Fusion

Enna’s art is instinctive and unrepeatable a collaboration between artist and skin that unfolds in real time.

Each tattoo is a living conversation. Shapes emerge, textures take form, and the design evolves with every stroke of the machine. No templates. No duplication. Just raw, creative energy captured in ink. For many, the experience is more than a tattoo it feels like transformation.

I let the body guide the design — art that breathes with you.” Enna..

Guest Artists

Beyond our resident artists, Malaika regularly hosts international guest tattooists who bring fresh perspectives to Zanzibar’s creative scene.

Each guest brings their own style — from fine-line minimalism to bold color work — giving our clients the chance to experience techniques and artistry rarely found on the island. These collaborations enrich our studio, inspire our team, and give you something truly unique: the chance to collect world-class tattoo work while in Zanzibar.

What Our Clients Say

From travelers to locals, our clients leave with more than a tattoo — they leave with a memory.
