Ossian started his art journey back in France through graffiti culture and discovered tattooing through lettering tattoos in his 20s.

Inspired by legends of both worlds (graffiti and tattooing) he will eventually realize that he’s even more attracted to realism black and grey, which is going to become his speciality.

After nearly 10 years in the industry, he now strives to create timeless art pieces incorporating dark and rich backgrounds in his work to complement bright and detailed subject matters.

His work can be best recognized by his high-contrast large scale designs, his favorite subject matters are generally portraits, skulls, and statues interlaced with various elements from gothic influence like roses, thorns and smokes, focusing first on the final render on the client, enhancing natural body shapes & flow.

He founded La Manigance Tattoo Toronto when he moved to Canada in 2021 and since gathered an incredible team of local and international talents in the heart of the city where, throughout the years, La Manigance Tattoo Toronto has earned its spot among the big names in the North American tattoo industry.
