About Emy. From law to lifelong art.

I'm Emine Kosemogullari, though most people know me as Emy. I graduated from both Law and Sociology, but art never sat quietly in the background. Painting, composition, and visual storytelling were always part of how I saw the world.

After graduation, I worked briefly as a lawyer. Around that time I started making temporary tattoos for friends and people around me, and it quickly became obvious that I wanted to create work that stayed with people for life.

That decision led me into formal tattoo training. The deeper I went, the clearer it became that tattooing was not a side path. It was the work I wanted to devote myself to fully.

For more than four years, I have worked as a full-time tattoo artist in Istanbul, creating pieces with intention, clarity, and a strong respect for the person who will carry them.
