Rafael Cassaro
Rafael Cassaro is one of the most respected names in black and grey realism tattooing, with a career spanning over two decades of dedication, refined technique, and artistic expression. Born in Santo André, São Paulo, Cassaro has made a name for himself internationally through his ability to turn skin into a living canvas, reproducing faces, scenes, and emotionally charged symbols with stunning precision.
With over a thousand tattoos completed, his work stands out for its rich detail, depth of contrast, and faithful representation—qualities that have established him as a reference in the black and grey realism style. His journey has taken him across countries in Europe, South America, and North America, building a solid reputation everywhere he goes.
More than just an artist, Rafael Cassaro is a true collaborator: he believes that every tattoo should be co-created with the client, honoring personal stories and always striving for a result that is unique, powerful, and unforgettable. His work is a fusion of technique, emotion, and deep respect for the art—and for those who wear it on their skin.
