Hayley

Hi i’m Hayley!! I’ve been creating all of my life and work with many art mediums. I’ve always been extremely drawn to tattooing. I adore the connection of it. Being able to make art that allows people to express themselves is so lovely.

My art is mainly inspired by nature and fantasy. I love taking creatures from our natural world and making them whimsical. I also love anomalies and anything peculiar. I use the name Chakriya for my art. It’s my Khmer middle name given to me by my mom. It is associated with circular cycles, balance, harmony, and spirituality. I feel that can reflect in my artwork.

Outside of art I love restoring vintage dolls, being outdoors in nature, playing videos games, reading horror novels, spending time with my friends, exploring New York with my boyfriend, and caring for my bunnies and tarantula.

I’m very grateful that I get to grow in my tattooing journey alongside an amazing team. I can’t wait for what the future has in store
