Gaston Siciliano (EN)

Today, we're thrilled to host Gaston Siciliano, the mastermind
behind FK Irons. Born in Argentina and raised in Miami, Gaston
journeyed into tattooing as a self-taught artist, beginning his
adventures in ink by tattooing himself at the tender age of 15.
Gaston founded FK Irons in 2007 without initially planning to start
a brand. His entry into the tattoo machine market started quite
inventively, building his first device with parts from a local Home
Depot and leveraging YouTube to master the software needed to
engineer sophisticated equipment. From a one-man operation, FK
Irons has expanded under his leadership into a global powerhouse
with over 500 employees. With a rich background in graphic design,
marketing, and photography—check out his work on Instagram
@gastonshutters—Gaston discusses the evolving tattoo market, the
increasing challenges within the industry, and the necessity for
artists to adapt. A staunch advocate for AI and technological
progress, Gaston shares his insights on how these tools are shaping
the future of tattooing. Join us as we explore Gaston’s journey
from novice to CEO and how he’s steering his company through the
tech-savvy waters of the modern world. [ WERBUNG ] Bei unseren
