Darwin City Tattoos is situated in the very heart of Darwin. The Studio has existed there under various guises for over 17 years.

In the beginning of 2006, the studio was purchased (and completely overhauled) by two of the artists, Mim d’Abbs and Blue a.k.a. Mat Selwyn.


Both artists wanted to create a friendly, accessible predominantly custom shop, in response to the growth in the tattoo industry itself - and the requirements of their clientèle.

Both artists feel it is essential to be constantly challenged in all areas, allowing the constant development of both artwork and ideas.

Regardless of whether the client is requiring a small discreet tattoo, or a large scale custom piece, the artists pride themselves on being able accommodate everyone's tastes and imagination.

Darwin City Tattoo's hygiene standard is hospital grade - The studio is approved by the Health Department.
