His Tattoo Journey

Lucky Diamond Rich began his tattooing journey at a young age and has progressively covered his entire body. His initial tattoos were a full-body coverage in solid black ink. However, his commitment to transformation didn't stop there. He then started getting white ink tattooed over the black, and subsequently, colored tattoos on top of the white. This multi-layered approach makes his body a living canvas of intricate and evolving artwork.

His unique artistic expression extends beyond just tattoos; he also engages in various performance art forms, including sword swallowing and juggling, often incorporating these skills into his street performances and appearances at international arts festivals.
