Ananya Rao is an independent tattoo artist who makes complex geometry feel calm and human. She is exacting about symmetry, curious about every tool on her bench, and fond of the small jokes that make long sessions easier. Away from the needle, she repairs old speakers, trades music recommendations, and sketches patterns inspired by architecture.
