Dr Lakra (Jeronimo Lopez Ramirez, born 1972, Mexico) is an artist and tattooist based in Oaxaca, Mexico. Apart from tattooing, his art involves embellishing found images and objects—for instance, dolls, old medical illustrations, and pictures in 1950s Mexican magazines—with macabre or tattoo-style designs.〔(Dr Lakra ), review at BBC Collective〕 He has shown work internationally in many exhibitions including ''Stolen Bike'' at the Andrew Kreps Gallery in New York, ''Los Dos Amigos'' at MACO in Mexico, ''Pin Up'' at Tate Modern and ''Pierced Hearts and True Love'' at The Drawing Center in New York.
