INKPORT PEOPLE 
By John D’Addario

John D’Addario of Inkport People is an American tattoo artist currently based in Miami, USA.

 

John’s passion for art took root early in life and has since evolved into a 20-year journey of exploration and self-expression through tattooing. He began his career working in traditional and realism styles—foundations he didn’t connect with creatively but credits for giving him the essential technical base and discipline to grow. For John and his family, tattooing has always been more than just a job—it’s a way of life, and one that opened the door to a life abroad.

 

A defining chapter of his career was the 10 years he spent living and tattooing in Russia. There, immersed in a different culture and artistic atmosphere, he honed his craft, challenged his boundaries, and began shaping the distinct style he’s known for today.

 

John’s current work blends sketch-like lines with bold, abstract color palettes. His tattoos are emotional, raw, and rooted in the belief that body art is a timeless form of human connection—linking past generations with the present.

 

Through years of experimentation, his style has evolved into a wearable form of fine art. His influences span the tropical vibrance of the Americas, the structured elegance of Europe, and the dynamic spirit of Asian artistry.

 

Under the name Inkport People, John D’Addario creates tattoos that balance beauty and simplicity, movement and meaning—inked expressions that live and breathe with the person who wears them.
