about

I’m Joeltron – I make shiny things for your body!

I am the owner of Opal Heart (Perth), and its sister studio Stone Heart (Sydney). I have been a professional piercer since 2002, but have had a passion for body modification for as long as I can remember! My passion led me to open my first studio in Sydney in late 2010, named First Blood (which was later re-named Stone Heart).

In 2012 I fell in love with Perth city, which led me to open my second studio, Opal Heart.

My love for the body art industry obviously didn’t stop there! I have been a proud APP member since, and have been on the board of directors for the AUPP since its origin in 2018. Both organisations have established a strong foundation for a progressive and safe industry, as well as offering knowledge, promoting education, and support to keep all members current with the best possible industry practices. I am proud to be an active member contributing to further growth in our amazing industry!

Outside of my APP/AUPP related endeavors, I have also been up to some other ventures and projects, to name a few: Clickerino, Stabpad, and Anatometal distribution.

When I’m not working, I’m usually tinkering with electronics or trying to “fix” one of my motorbikes. Basically, I like to make things that go beep beep and braaap braaaaap.

I’m planning to keep doing what I’m doing since it’s so much fun and makes me happy. I am so thankful to all the people who put up with my wackiness over the years, I appreciate you all more than you know!

Also mega love and thanks to all of my regular clients and friends who have supported me since day one. I continue to grow as a person and an artist thanks to the freedom you give me to do what I do. Let’s all raise a kitty paw (instead of a glass) and make a toast to the next chapter, keen as a bean to see you there.

Stay paws-itive !
