Alexander Stairs

Rooted in the timeless and the tactile, Alexander Stairs is a tattoo artist at Sempiternal in Wethersfield, CT. They specialize in blackwork and dotwork, crafting bold, meditative designs that draw inspiration from both ancient symbolism and modern minimalism. Each piece by Alex is hand-drawn with intention, favoring texture, repetition, and the power of stark contrast over color. Outside of tattooing, their love for history and craftsmanship shines through, as they find inspiration in forgotten relics, vintage prints, and the quiet stories of the past, imbuing each tattoo with a sense of permanence and reverence.
