Body Piercer and needle artist Zak Saturn chats about life and how to poke holes in the world.

Zak Saturn (he/him) is relatively new to the world of sharps. Starting as a body piercing apprentice he used play piercing as a tool to practice the art of piercing flesh. Now, 2 years later, he finds himself constantly thinking about his next set and what he can create through this chosen medium.
Although he is a Body Piercer first and a play piercer second, Zak firmly believes in the ritual aspect of piercing. That there is something powerful and even mystical in the art of piercing. Whether it is one needle or one hundred going through the skin, a good intention and shared vision creates something beautiful.
It takes a lot of trust to let someone intentionally harm you and Zak strives to create a space of consent, safety, and self expression. He wants to give those who work with him the room to be their most authentic self doing his part to help make that happen.
