Work at Spearmaiden as a Resident / Guest


Looking for a place to work while traveling?

Looking for a space that can accomodate your multimedia practice?

Spearmaiden is looking for a few freaks to join our castle and share space with our current artists!


This is what stands out to us in a potential resident artist:

Tattooers, piercers, and body workers/modification practitioners with at least 2 years of experience with an additional creative practice is preferred, however we also love being a supportive space for new artists looking to expand.

A deep understanding and respect for the client-centered and consent-forward approach to body modification.

Willingness to engage with feedback respectfully and constructively.

Excellent communication skills before, during, and after the body work/modification process with both artists and clients.

Commitment to providing a clean and calming environment for our clients and fellow artists to enjoy.
