Over the past months, Antikapratika has been a little quieter than usual.
This pause has a reason we would like to share openly with you.
Ivan, our Designer at Antikapratika and tattoo artist based in Berlin, is currently undergoing medical treatment. For this reason, we are temporarily based in Italy, where Ivan is receiving care and focusing on recovery.
This is not an easy time, but it is a necessary one.
Despite everything, creativity has never completely stopped.
Drawing, designing and working slowly on small projects have remained an important part of our daily life. Art, in this moment, is not about production or speed, it is about balance, focus and staying connected to what we love.
Antikapratika was born from this exact idea:
creating meaningful, handmade objects with care, patience and intention.
While Ivan is rarely tattooing at the moment, some limited works are still available through our online shop, alongside Marta’s hand-painted porcelain pieces and a small selection of unique objects, art prints created over time.
Every order, every message, every sign of support during these months has meant more than we can properly express.
Thank you for being here, quietly and patiently, with us.
We will continue to share small updates when we can, and we look forward to returning to Berlin once this phase is over.
Until then, we move slowly, but we keep going.
Warmly,
Ivan & Marta
