Vond Barta
Tattoos are a creative and individual form of expression. As a tattoo artist it is always a challenge to create the ideal tattoo. With so many forms and variations, tattooing has become an expression of who we believe we are and where we belong.

Vond has tattooed in many styles, but leans towards what he believes is a more cultural and diverse style of tattooing which has been inspired by all those who have come before him.

There is always an independent and unique theme within tattoos, which is why Vond has spent much of his life studying theosophy, symbology, geometry and history (amongst other themes). Expressing these as tattoos has become his passion, which has grown more personal over the years. Tattoos have been with us forever, as sacred marks on our body. They are our outer-selves. If you have something that is sacred, personal or just interesting to you, which you wish to express artistically, then Vond can work on it.

Reviews

“I have been getting tattooed by Rob for around 5 years now and there’s a reason for going to him all this time! He has done my back, arms, torso and both legs. He has one of the best tattooing brains around, whether you are a first time customer or a heavily tattooed veteran, he is professional and very welcoming.
The quality of his tattoos are absolutely amazing, and he can do so many different styles – from trad work to full jap body suits and everything in between. He is an experienced artist, a long-time tattooer who has paid his dues in the industry and I am so excited for his own shop!
There is a reason why he is so respected in the tattooing world and I couldn’t recommend him enough to anyone who is looking to get something done. Just get onto the shop and organise a consult, you won’t regret it.”

“Edie Mopar has done majority of the tattoos I have and I’ll keep going back! Whether I ask her to draw something custom or choose from the piles of flash she has, Edie’s tattoos are consistently incredible. I have never been disappointed and have complete faith in the work that she does. She’s not only a rad tattooer but a rad person, i’ve never had a bad time with her! I would 100% recommend Edie for any of your tattooing needs.

I’ve also been tattooed by Rob and he is a legend! Sacred monkey tattoo has expert tattooers, a super cool and comfortable atmosphere plus the highest quality work you can find.”

” have been tattooed by Vond for over 10 years now. Great person, great artist, great shop. Would highly recommend stopping by the shop if you’re in the mood for some ink.”

“I have been seeing Rob regularly for tattoos for most of this year now. Sacred monkey is an incredibly beautiful Japanese themed shop. The detail that flows throw the shop is magnificent and it’s not even finished yet!!!
Rob is a wonderful person to work with, he is caring about his work and his clients (I’m a big sook). Robs art is out of this world. Rob has almost finished my ‘traditional American’ style sleeve and I couldn’t be happier. I’m so glad to have stumbled upon Rob before I let someone else attack me with something that would never have been this beautiful.
Edie has also been a joy to work with (she has tattooed me also, and I will be back for more from her), with her happy and super cute persona, I look forward to my next appointment just to catch up with both of them.
I give sacred monkey 5 stars as my experience with them is flawless. From what I have see from the other artists as well with their friendly nature and magnificent work they deserve nothing less.”

“Rob is the most amazing and talented dude,with an eye for detail. He has a great sense of humor and is so down to earth and chilled he makes you forget what is actually going on. I totally trust this guy and I look forward to having him complete my addiction. The shop is beautiful too. Bright, clean and not at all intimidating.”
