Who I Am
I’m Tibor Taylor Varga, an artist based in Manchester, originally from Hungary. I’ve been living in the UK for 15 years, and Manchester is now my home.
My artistic journey began with graffiti in Hungary in the early 2000s. I spent around 20 years actively painting graffiti, participating in the Hip Hop movement, and even trying my hand at rapping. It has been a long journey, but I’ll keep it short and sweet.
Today, I specialise in colour realism in both tattooing and fine art, working at North of Winter Collective here in Manchester. Between tattoo sessions, I continue to explore painting in oils and street photography.
I’m naturally curious and passionate about art. Over the years, I’ve explored many creative avenues, and as I continue to grow, my work has become increasingly meaningful and refined.
Outside of art, I’m a proud husband and father to my wonderful daughter, June.
