Born and raised in Rome, Italy, Mattia Bretti infuses his tattooing with a profound appreciation for classical artistry and Italian culture. Drawing inspiration from imperialistic art and masters like Michelangelo and Caravaggio, he is renowned for his distinctive ‘Michelangelo style’ of art. Mattia expertly employs the chiaroscuro technique, utilizing strongly contrasting light and shadow to create a dramatic sense of depth, realism, and emotional intensity in his pieces. Starting his journey at 17, he has honed his craft through guest spots and conventions across the globe, launching his US career in New York and now making his mark in Miami. Mattia Bretti is affiliated with MACKO Tattoo Shop in Rome, Italy.
