Geometric Line Tattoos By Chaim Machlev Elegantly Flow Across The Human Body

ADVERTISEMENT

The incorporation of modern art into tattoo designs is gaining steam worldwide, and one of the tattoo artists at the forefront of this movement is Chaim Machlev, whose beautiful line tattoos often look like complex geometric simulations that we’d normally expect to see on a computer screen.

Though he also creates beautiful geometric tattoos and tattoo ideas with traditional artistic elements, the Berlin-based artist’s signature body art is broad and sweeping ribbons and lines that trace the bodies of their clients like trails of cigarette smoke. He previously worked as an IT manager, beginning his tattoo work in 2012, so we’re wondering if his geometric designs might have been influenced by coiled cabled or bouncing screensavers.

There is a beast with heart of cold stone that dashes like lightning, shreds flesh from bone. // Bewitched by this beast, I fell to my knees. My mouth babbled madness and mumbled soft pleas. // I stared down the ravenous, gnashing dark maw of a cute cuddly kitten with yarn in its paw

The artist was previously working behind a computer screen, so it does make sense why the tats look like screensavers (lol)! Very nice work

I love the ones that scroll and wind across arms or legs, the chest and back don't works as well for me (and across nipple, ouch!)

A few of them appear to be from a spectrum analyzer display of acoustics.

This people didn't really tatooed that in their bodies, right? It looks nice, but what meaning can it possibly have?

Forgive me for my ignorance, but I thought people only tatooed things that had personal meaning for them. :/ At least I would..

I like 1,2,5,7 & 15, they flow much better with the body in my opinion.

I think they are beautiful and I`d be more ready to commit myself to one of these that any guy`s name or an object of any kind. Not for me!

Awesome, but sort of strange. Love the full arm span/back piece that looks like sound wave and the calf pieces that looked like lace.
