A graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice, where he studied painting with a specialization in new media. He started to tattoo relatively recently, because in 2012, however, more than ten years of experience in the field of visual arts allowed him to join the ranks of recognizable Polish tattooists in a short time. He likes to combine various media, apart from tattoo, painting and drawing, he is fascinated by photography, film and other, less conventional artistic activities. Tattoo artist since 2013 associated with the Krakow Kult Tattoo.

I have been a tattooer since 2013 but my fascination with the art of tattooing first appeared when I was a teenager. I have been drawing and creating for as long as I can remember. Some of my experience and practical skills I gained at university.

We have been running a private tattoo shop (Ink.fluence) with my partner Gregory since 2016. We have invited artists from all over the country. I have also visited many European studios over the last two years, watching and improving my technique.

My tattoos are marked by refined and colourful gradients, they are mostly feminine and detailed. I get inspiration from different influences, not only from the world of tattoos but art in the broad sense.

Phenomen is the world that describes Róbert Borbas most accurately. He took the time that most tattooers take to learn, to become one of the top artists in europe. He is tattooing since 2012. When four years ago, tattoofest intervied him, Róbert was tattooing only for 1.5 year and his great talent was already recognizable. Vision, passion, great energy, positive mental attitude are the features that got Róbert to the point where he is now. He is a regular (an very liked) guest on Tattoofest.
