Managing Partner Michael Wildes is proud to announce the approval of the petition filed to secure EB-1 classification for renowned tattoo artist, Filip Fabian.
Mr. Fabian masterfully combines watercolor, linework and dotwork to create tattoos that look more like watercolor paintings than ink on skin. Mr. Fabian hails from a hardscrabble family based in a small town near Kosice, Slovakia. Today, at the spry age of 29 years old, time and pressure have transformed his raw talent into a precious art form. His talents have graced cultural centers around the world, covering ground in London, Berlin, and Barcelona. He has held residencies at global tattoo institutions like Tribo Tattoo & Piercing in Prague, Kaleidoscope Studio in Bondi Beach, Sydney and Black and Blue Tattoo in San Francisco, California. He has been honored with prestigious awards from Tattoo Grand Prix in Brno. Given these honors and reputation, he is routinely spotlighted in major publications Skin deep magazine, 247 Ink Magazine, Aktualne, Blesk, InkPPL Magazine and has served as a judge at the Tattd Convention.
