OUR TEAM

FOUNDER / ARTIST

 

Clara Grech aka @zap.ink

 

Clara’s tattoos are unmistakable — delicate, detailed, and full of soul. Her signature fineline work blends softness with precision, often drawing on mystical or narrative themes that carry a quiet emotional power. With a background rooted in illustration and a passion for visual storytelling, her designs turn personal moments into timeless tattoo pieces.

​

As the founder and creative director of London’s Glitch, Clara has shaped more than a studio — she’s built a vision. Her goal was to create a space that felt alive, intentional, and deeply artist-focused; a place where creativity thrives and every artist feels free to evolve. What began as her lifelong dream at 18 has become one of London’s most distinctive studios, defined by its sense of community, integrity, and design.

 

Every tattoo Clara creates is tailored to her client — free-flowing, intentional, and deeply considered. Her ability to translate ideas into intimate, one-of-a-kind works is what makes her practice stand out. Through Glitch, she continues to champion authenticity and innovation in the tattoo industry, pushing boundaries through her ever-evolving artistic voice.

Roy and Clara’s long-standing collaboration is rooted in shared values: artistic freedom, community, and pushing boundaries. It was Roy who named the studio — a nod to their belief that every artist is a beautiful glitch in the system. Behind the scenes, he brings structure, insight, and a deep love for the culture that fuels everything Glitch stands for.
