Kila was Born in 1966 in Treviso ( Italy). After her studies at Artistic Lyceum she started studying at Belle Arti's Accademy inVenice. In 1989 she began her work as a tattooer with classical issues but her needs to live this practice in a different way, expecially the relation between tattooer and the person who wants a tattoo and the believing that tattoo's art is not only esthetical, leaded her to find new ways. She found her way in manual and acient tattoo's practice leaving behind the modern techniques
and electrical instruments. This is the main reason wich encouraged her to base all her work on her own acient territory's culture but keeping her mind open to the influences and artistic's suggestions from other acient civilizations' images and beliefs.
