“I was lucky enough to have an awesome tattoo piece done by Ace this week. He took all the time we needed to sort an original design which I absolutely love. A lovely peaceful setting in the beautiful Waitākere ranges - thanks again for the awesome experience.”

“I had my first big tattoo (full day session) done by Ace, couldn't be happier with it. I told him the elements that I wanted and he custom designed the tattoo for me.
Apart from the amazing tattoo, Ace's patience and professionalism made it a pleasant experience.”

“Had a number of different tattoos done by Ace over the years and have always come away a changed man. Not only because of the extra INK lol, but because of the inevitable journey that Ace will lead you onto and that's rare and priceless to me. Needless to say the environment is one of a kind and the journey to and from Exium is absolutely stunning also.
For me Ace it's 1000% the artist I trust and want more ink from in the future.”

It's more than just a tattoo, it's an entire experience from start to finish.
The attention to detail and after care is amazing.
Ace is truly one of the leading artist out there and ensures you feel comfortable every step of the way.
You will not leave without something amazing.”

“This is such a perfect space for the journey involved in being tattooed. My journey began in July 2021, with an amazing consult and discussion of the concept I was aiming for. Ace delivered the perfect mix of understanding and insight to bring some real life to the idea.
From beginning to end the insight and communication of what was being worked on allowed me to trust the skill and artistic flare Ace provided, with an end result, after many sessions that perfectly captured my concept, in a way that draw comments and complements from many who see it.
Thank you Ace for an amazing journey, and the utterly beautiful artwork you created for me.”

“I had my first large and colour tattoo done by Ace who came highly recommended for his unique style and ability to create and understand what I'd be after. I spent a full day with him working through the style, the colours, the placement, absolutely everything to ensure I was 100% happy and comfortable. My piece is now finished and looks fantastic, I get stopped by people commenting on it and I am so pleased with how it turned out. Would absolutely recommend this incredibly talented artist!escription goes here.”

“If you’re looking for a phenomenal tattoo experience then Exīum Studio is the place to go. Tucked away in the beautiful Waitākere Ranges is a space like no other, the calming native trees surrounding you. Then as you enter the studio you are greeted with the warmth of an old friend by the most sensational tattoo artist, Ace Alexander. Every session I’ve had with Ace has been an easy, relaxing, yet exciting journey. The artistic knowledge and professionalism Ace uses to captivate you as an individual and then create an authentic piece of art that solely fits your body & energy is unmatched. Thank you Ace, I love every visit and will see you again soon!

“Getting a tattoo at Exium is an experience like no other. The studio is a wonderland of textures, treasures and talismans tucked away in a lush, private bush setting. The whole experience is incredibly professional yet 100% personal. Ace puts his passion into his art wholeheartedly. If you're looking for a high quality, unique piece - there's no one I would recommend more.
Throughout the process, I felt not only safe and cared for but also actively engaged in the design evolution. I loved watching the concept materialize was as much as the final tattoo itself.
Without hesitation, I can say there's no one I'd trust more for a remarkable, one-of-a-kind piece. Hopefully I'll be back for more before too long!”
