OSCO London – Meet Binay

Meet Binay – Bold Blackwork                                                                                                                 

When it comes to tattoos that make a visual statement, Binay is one of London’s most distinctive and confident artists. At OSCO London, he’s known for his large-scale blackwork, striking compositions and fearless approach to form and flow. His tattoos are powerful, deeply structured and unapologetically bold—often covering arms, legs, torsos or backs in clean, dynamic shapes that become part of the wearer’s body.

Binay is widely respected for his ability to create tattoos that are both artistic and architectural. With a style that fuses sacred geometry, abstract form and spiritual symbolism, his work stands out not only for its visual impact but for the clear intention behind every line. If you’re looking for one of the best blackwork tattoo artists in London, Binay is a name to remember.

Binay’s Tattoo Style and Creative Identity

Binay’s tattooing style is grounded in bold blackwork—using large areas of solid black ink, negative space and sharp, purposeful lines to create designs that command attention. His work is often inspired by symmetry, motion, repetition and ancient pattern work, giving each piece a timeless quality rooted in strength and symbolism.

He’s particularly known for creating tattoos that work with the body, not against it. Rather than dropping a design onto the skin, he shapes his work around the natural contours, making each piece feel organic and almost sculptural. From full sleeves and chest panels to thigh wraps and backpieces, Binay’s tattoos become part of the wearer’s identity—not just decoration.

Many clients come to him with a broad concept—such as protection, rebirth, or transformation—and trust him to design a piece that expresses it visually through shape, structure and rhythm.

The Tattooing Experience with Binay

Getting tattooed by Binay is both an artistic process and a physical journey. He starts each appointment with a clear consultation, where he takes the time to understand not just what you want, but why you want it. He discusses placement, movement, symbolism and structure, and often freehands designs directly onto the body so they flow naturally with your shape.

His sessions are focused and immersive. There’s a sense of ceremony to the way he works, with deliberate pacing and a quiet intensity that helps clients drop into the experience. Whether you’re receiving a forearm band, a shoulder-to-wrist piece or an abstract chest design, Binay gives each tattoo his full attention from start to finish.

Clients often describe his process as transformative—something deeper than simply being tattooed. His work has a presence, and so does the experience of sitting with him.

Pain and Healing

Bold blackwork can involve longer sessions and more saturation than fine line or light-shaded tattoos. Binay’s designs often include areas of heavy fill, which can feel more intense during the process—especially on larger pieces or high-sensitivity areas like ribs or inner arms. However, his technique is efficient and deliberate, which helps minimise unnecessary overworking of the skin.

Healing time depends on the size and density of the tattoo. Smaller blackwork pieces may heal in around two weeks, while large-scale panels can take a little longer. Binay provides clear, tailored aftercare advice after every session, including how to clean the area, how to moisturise without overdoing it, and what to avoid during the initial healing phase.

His tattoos are built to last, and the healing process is part of preserving the crispness and contrast of the work.

Tattoo Pricing and Booking with Binay

Binay’s pricing reflects the custom nature and time investment required for each piece. He tends to work on medium to large-scale tattoos, with half-day and full-day rates being the most common structure. Smaller designs start from around £150, while larger work is quoted based on size, complexity and session length.

Clients can begin the booking process with a consultation, either online or in person at OSCO London. Binay prefers to work closely with each client to create something unique, so advance booking is recommended—particularly for multi-session work or pieces that cover a significant area.

Who Binay’s Work Is Perfect For

Binay’s tattoos are perfect for clients who want bold, meaningful work that becomes part of their visual identity. His designs are ideal for those who appreciate structure, symmetry and spiritual or symbolic themes—whether expressed through geometry, abstract forms or flowing body-led shapes.

His work resonates with people who aren’t afraid to commit to larger tattoos and who see body art as a kind of personal architecture—something that speaks about who they are, how they’ve evolved or what they stand for.

He’s especially popular with clients seeking backpieces, sleeves, ornamental panels or deeply structured work that feels powerful and enduring.

Hygiene and Studio Standards

As with all OSCO London artists, Binay operates within a fully licensed, council-approved environment where hygiene, safety and professionalism are held to the highest standard. Every tattoo is done with sterile, single-use needles and clean equipment, and the studio is maintained to ensure a safe, comfortable experience for all clients.

From your first consultation to the final moments of your session, Binay ensures everything is handled with intention, care and total respect for your skin, your time and your trust.

Common Questions and Clarifications

Clients often ask whether bold blackwork tattoos are more painful than other styles. While they can involve more skin coverage, Binay’s precise and controlled method keeps discomfort manageable, even during longer sittings.

Another frequent question is whether his tattoos can be added to later or integrated with existing work. The answer is yes—Binay is highly experienced at building tattoos that can grow over time, or reworking older pieces into new, cohesive designs.

It’s also worth noting that blackwork, when done properly, ages incredibly well. There’s a misconception that large black areas will blur or fade quickly, but Binay uses smart spacing and balanced contrast to ensure each tattoo remains crisp and clear for years to come.
