The Artist
Behind Flytrap

I'm a tattoo artist and piercer based in Bo-Kaap, Cape Town — and honestly, I couldn't imagine doing anything else.

What drives me is simple: creating work that means something. Whether it's a piece that brings peace, sparks joy, or marks a moment someone will carry forever — seeing that reaction on a client's face is what I live for.

Tattooing is a privilege. The idea that something I create will be worn on someone's skin for the rest of their life — that never gets old, and it never gets taken for granted.

My work spans black & grey realism, colour, fine line, and a range of other styles. Whatever the vision, I'm here to make it something worth wearing.

■ A New Chapter at Flytrap

Welcome,
Jarad

We believe that great studios are built on great people — and Jarad is exactly that.

This morning, we officially welcomed Jarad to the Flytrap family. His skill spans large-scale colour work, black & grey realism, neo-traditional illustrative pieces, and everything in between. The breadth, the precision, the soul in each piece — it speaks for itself.

At Flytrap, we invest in our artists the same way our artists invest in their clients — with intention, care, and a long view. Jarad joining us isn't just an addition to the team. It's a statement about where this studio is going.

We're looking forward to the journey ahead.
