The Enigma (person)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Enigma is a sideshow performer and musician who has undergone extensive body modification, including horn implants and a full-body jigsaw-puzzle tattoo. His tattooing process began on December 20, 1992, under the needle of "Katzen the Tiger Lady," heavily tattooed herself, now The Enigma's ex-partner and bandmate. To date, The Enigma has had more than two hundred tattoo artists work on him, with as many as twenty-three at one time.
Raised in Seattle, The Enigma began studying music when he was six years old and was a founding member of the Jim Rose Circus, which toured the world between 1992 and 1998.
The Enigma toured with Katzen, playing music and doing sideshow performances under the moniker "Human Marvels." More recently, he has toured solo.
The Enigma appeared on the television show The X-Files in an episode entitled "Humbug," where he played a character called "The Conundrum." In 2004, The Enigma was featured in Steve Balderson's film Firecracker, where he was billed as "himself."
