Inked by LeLe
Intuitive & Culturally Inspired Tattoos
Hibr Flash Day is happening. Proceeds going to @hibrfalastin.
Friday, September 11
11am to 8pm at @tahananstudio
Link in bio to book. Walk-ins by availability only.
Hibr means “ink” in Arabic, and that’s what this day is. Ink as offering, ink as record, ink as refusal to look away.
The designs are poppies, olive branches, watermelon, tatreez patterns, the key. Symbols that Palestinians have carried through generations of displacement, each one holding memory, land, and the right of return. These are repeatable, so no design is one of one. Take the one that calls you.
Years of watching a genocide unfold and the least I can do is put my hands to work. Come sit with me. Bring your people. Let’s fill this studio and send everything we make where it needs to go.
Book through the link in bio. Please no booking requests in the DMs.

🌕 The Moon Is Full Collection 🌕
An offering for this Thursday’s lunar eclipse and full Sturgeon Moon.
I’ve been in all the feels today. Eclipse season has a way of pulling everything to the surface, and honestly, it feels like the whole world is holding so much right now. Grief, exhaustion, rage, tenderness, all at once. So I drew what I’ve been praying for.
Poppy for peace. It’s the flower that comes back first in ground torn up by war, which is how it became the symbol of remembrance. In Palestine, the red poppies that return to the hills every spring have long stood for memory, for the land, and for those who never left it. A flower that keeps coming back is its own kind of resistance. Free Palestine.
Gumamela for joy. Every Filipino kid knows this flower. We crushed the petals to make bubbles, our lolas used it as poultice for wounds. It grows wild and loud in the heat and asks for nothing. That’s the kind of joy I want, the kind that’s ordinary, native to us, and impossible to colonize.
Rose for love. The word rosary comes from rose garden, and I think about that a lot. Love as devotion. Love as something you return to over and over, thorns and all.
Peace, joy, love. That’s the intention I’m setting under this moon, for me and for all of us.
