Welcome to This Mortal Coil Tattoo Gallery! We are a large, private & appointment only, custom tattoo studio in the heart of Altrincham, Manchester. Owned by the multi-award winning tattoo artist Dan Hancock and run by his trusted shop manager, Alina Kondrashova-Askew. We currently have six full time artists which helps us cover all corners of tattooing from realism portraits to mandalas in colour and black & grey.
Our opening hours are Monday - Saturday from 10am to 4:30pm. Late appointments are available when pre-arranged with the artist directly.
"To be, or not to be: that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them?
To die: to sleep; No more; and by a sleep to say we end the heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks that flesh is heir to,
'tis a consummation devoutly to be wish'd.
To die, to sleep; to sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub; for in that sleep of death what dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause: there's the respect that makes calamity of so long life. (3.1.56-69)"
