Healing Tattoo Arts in the heART of Calgary
Kintsugi is the ancient Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, highlighting beauty in imperfection. At Kintsugi Tattoo, we apply this philosophy to healing, transformation, and restorative tattooing for the body and soul.
Welcome to Kintsugi Tattoo
Stacie-Rae, our primary heARTist, is one of the first professional female tattooers in Canada
Falling in love with the ancient art of tattoo after receiving a ‘scratcher’ basement tattoo at age 14 in 1989, Stacie-Rae has had an incredible journey as a breast cancer previvor and a leader in the restorative tattoo field.
Plus, she’s also received her very own healing mastectomy tattoo (Thanks Samantha Rae!)
Attending art school in 1994, followed by a professional apprenticeship in 1995, she became one of Canada’s first professionally trained and art school educated female tattooers, on February 8, 1996.

OUR TATTOO SESSIONS
A simple energy clearing with commonly used things like smudge, sound bowl + deep breathing techniques.
Sessions may help to release emotional pain deep within the body to create a sacred space to cry or laugh or even scream – whatever helps to release the past fully.
Sessions are usually 1-5 hours long as we can reduce additional feelings of trauma. A large tattoo can take multiple sessions and slowly integrate and accept your ‘visionary’ art into your new life!
divine vision
Intuitive Tattoo Design:
After integrating your trauma session, your divine vision will come back. Together we will brainstorm on your ideas and your reference photos.
We will talk intuitively about where you want it to flow on your body, subject matter and style that will help you feel beautiful, powerful and strong.
We will use intention to rewrite the story on your body. The tattoo becomes a talisman of your transformation, not just the end goal!
