Elias Tyro

Art is who I am. I followed my heart down the path many are not willing to take. I wasn’t looking for treasure, I just had a hunger to express myself and nobody was going to tell me otherwise. I hustled my way through art school while at the same time worked in the tattoo industry in Christchurch city. Rap gave me an outlet to feel and an attempt to express my experience. Tattooing bought me closer to people and the characters I shared space with gave me perspective. What I share is an extension of conversation with an authentic point of view. My style is diverse because it had to be in order to survive an adverse environment. I am an old soul living in a world forever changing, This is my art .
