Meet Mila Loba
Mila is a passionate tattoo artist who has poured her heart into creating art that resonates with her journey and the diverse cultures she has experienced. As a first-generation artist from a rural town in Bavaria, Germany, she felt called to leave her hometown from a young age in search of something more. Over the years, Mila has lived on almost every continent, ultimately finding the source of her inspiration for her art in the culturally rooted and authentic corners of the world.
Her artistic inspiration is rooted in her lived experiences and deep connection to these lands and many others—these rich heritages guide her design philosophy and infuse her work with a sense of timelessness and authenticity. Alongside her creative pursuits, Mila is passionate about animal rights and has collaborated with various animal rescue organizations and clinics worldwide, particularly in India and Mexico, and has been vegan for over 10 years. She passionately advocates for disadvantaged groups and understands the challenges posed by the fast fashion industry, as well as the impacts of colonization on the clothing world. This drives her to work with recycled materials and ensure ethical production practices in her products, with each piece serving as a statement of her values. Rest assured, her clothing and art are always centered around minimizing impact in alignment with her beliefs.
Fueled solely by her independent funding, this brand started as a modest merchandise line with a few simple designs before she had the means to expand. With time and dedication, it has now evolved into a space where she can create pieces that reflect her expression, as well as a platform for collaboration with her close community, who inspire her every day. Though always a humble work in progress, she is excited for its continued growth and evolution. She is profoundly grateful for the support and love from her clients and customers over the years, as this in itself has empowered one individual and a small team to bring meaningful expression to creation.
