LILIUM'S IMAGINARIUM

A Place Devoted to the Imagination

Step inside Lilium’s Imaginarium and you’ll find more than a tattoo studio — you’ll discover a space designed just for you. Hidden in the heart of Bridgnorth, our appointment-only studio is a place where time slows down, conversations matter, and every detail is shaped around your story.

We’re Ryan Antony and Lily Heather — husband and wife, dreamers, and creators. Lily brings her award-winning artistry, transforming ideas into works of art on the skin that feel alive. Ryan brings vision and atmosphere, ensuring that from the moment you walk in, the experience feels as memorable as the art you leave with. Lily is a multi-award-winning Tattoo Artist, and Ryan is an SMP Artist and Creative Entrepreneur. Together they make one hell of a team.

Here, nothing is rushed. Nothing is ordinary. Each tattoo is a collaboration, crafted to reflect who you are, in a setting that’s calm, beautiful, and entirely yours.

Our Story

Every tattoo begins with a story — and ours is no different.

We’re Ryan Antony and Lily Heather — husband and wife, partners in life and in dreams. For years, we spoke about creating a studio of our own: a space that felt as personal and unique as the art that Lily creates, and as welcoming as a home away from home. At the end of 2024, we stopped dreaming and set ourselves a challenge: to open our doors by August 2025. In the January we registered our business, and in the February we were applying for commercial properties...
Six intense months later, in August — we welcomed our first tattoo client.

The journey wasn’t easy! Our chosen space in the heart of Bridgnorth was far from move-in ready. Behind its character we found damp, mould, damaged electrics, even rats! But instead of walking away, we rolled up our sleeves and got to work. After nine weeks of renovation — adding a kitchenette, a new W/C, and transforming every corner — what once was broken became Lilium’s Imaginarium, a place full of life, warmth, and creativity. All it took was a little bit of imagination.

Why Bridgnorth? Because the moment we found it, we fell in love. It's history, it's charm, it's community — it felt like the right place for our story to continue. We live just a short walk from the studio with our German Shepherd pup, Ragnar, who will one day have his own spot here (and so will your furry companions, because we know family doesn’t end with people).

Together, we’ve poured our hearts and souls into making this studio unlike any other. Lily, a multi-award-winning tattoo artist with nearly a decade of experience tattooing across the world (and one of the few to tattoo aboard Virgin Voyages’ Squid Ink studio at sea), brings artistry and vision to every piece she creates. Ryan, a former touring musician with Ryders Creed, a driven "Creative entrepreneur", and SMP Artist (in training), brings the energy and the business backbone to keep our dream thriving.

The result? A private, luxury, appointment-only tattoo studio that feels cosy, stylish, and alive — complete with a sound system, TV, and the kind of atmosphere that makes hours fly by. Our mission is simple: to create the best tattoo experience in Shropshire, and to build a space where every client becomes a part of our journey.

Because when you book with us, you’re not just getting a tattoo. You’re becoming an integral part of our studio's story.
