Dream Jungle Tattoo is the Long Beach studio of Aleks Figueroa, an artist specializing in Filipino tattoos that reflect the cultural roots and history of the Philippines. The work draws on Neo-Filipino tattooing as well as Fil-Americana/Classic Americana, Blackwork, and Japanese styles, with an emphasis on preserving tradition and telling stories through design. Figueroa's approach blends respect for ancestral practice with modern influence, treating each tattoo as a connection to culture, craftsmanship, and meaning rather than just image-making.
Figueroa's tattooing roots trace back to 1998, learning through conversation with elders and firsthand study with tattoo artists, colleagues, and tribal elders across the world, having worked on six continents in around 40 countries. Beyond the Long Beach base, the studio operates as a travelling practice, accepting RSVP bookings in the Bay Area, Las Vegas, Honolulu, and Manila in addition to Long Beach. Clients seeking custom, culturally rooted work can book consultations directly, and the studio's site also shares background on Filipino tattoo history and a gallery of completed pieces for those exploring the tradition further.
