The South Coast of NSW is home to many brilliant things - none any less than Em Reid of Blanc Space Tattoo Studio.

Em has got to be up there with one of Australia’s best fine-line tattooists despite basing herself out of a fairly remote but undeniably beautiful part of the East Coast. Having set up her studio originally in Ulladulla, Em’s popularity grew and so did her need for more space with six other artists coming on board alongside Tito and making the move up the road to Milton. Now home to eight brilliant tattooists and conveniently right next door to Bar Yuki, Blanc Space is immediately one of the most warm and refreshing tattoo joints - a ode to Em, her talent and vision of making everyone feel welcome to get tattooed. She’s equally a boss bitch as she is one of the nicest people on the planet, and having personally wanted a tattoo from her since forever, it was a pleasure to spend the day getting to know Em and the Blanc Space team.
