Thank you Nell for presenting a wonderful human world. Yes as you have stated, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. The rings around the neck are painful even to look at. I enjoyed reading, but the lip plate looks like sheer torture. You have showcased the tribe so very well and I have come to know so much more. The long necked tribe seem to be fascinating. Nithya Venkat from Dubai on August 08, 2012: They need to end those things now so that no other ladies, have to deal with them at all. I am also praying for the ladies,who are going through those things now. I am praying for the ladies that went through those things, in the past. Thanks Lightshare, glad you liked it, nell
Hi Vellur, yes the long neck tribe look amazing but it must be so uncomfortable for the ladies, as for the lip plates, well, less said the better! lol! thanks so much, nell Hi Integrity, yes I totally agree with you, thanks as always for reading, nell Enjoyed this hub and didn't know any of this. Moonlake from America on August 08, 2012: Hi moonlake, thanks so much for reading, nell Unfortunately, no true matriarchal societies exist. It would be interesting to see what type of body modification traditions would be practiced in matriarchal societies where women wielded the power. I do find it very telling that most of these traditions were practiced on women rather than men, obviously in cultures where women were considered "property" of the men therefore, pain wasn't a consideration-only the preservation of the man's "property." Jaye Denman from Deep South, USA on August 08, 2012:Įxcellent hub, Nell, fascinating to read, and the visuals are haunting. Hi Jaye, yes that's so true, all the time women are told what to do there will always be this sort of practice, that would be great to see, a matriarchal society! thanks for reading, cheers nell
Nell Rose (author) from England on August 08, 2012: Nell, this was outstanding! I wonder how they get those neck rings ON? I have seen young people in the US with nose plugs and ear plugs. For that, check out my non-profit: Natural Leaders Foundation.Mary Hyatt from Florida on August 08, 2012: My vision is also to collaborate with families and children, treating them as leaders and artists in our communities. Email me if you’re interested.Īfter that comes trainings and workshops for others to learn the art form and become tribal marking artists! I am really looking forward to seeing what other artists will do with this tool in their tribes – creating a movement that is much bigger than me. The Markers are also planned to be available for sale by summer of 2015, with custom markers and colors available soon after. Q: What’s next? Where are you taking this project?Īs an artist and creative director of Dream Giant group. My partner and I will be hosting workshops for people to align into their visions and help them see what their mark in the world is. Each of us can effect our tribe with our mark and our movement. We are a part of many tribes, but together we are also one tribe. Q: What’s the importance of tribe?Īs humans we thrive in tribes. I know I do. It is the back bone of how we relate and trust the people in our culture. I am now training other artists, creating my own Tribal Markers, and evolving the art form into a social outreach for other Artist/Healers to apprentice and grow the craft. It has opened up new doors of creative expression and a venue to share my work as well as myself with thousands of people and communities.
#Tribal body paint art full
Q: How did this become your thing?Ī: Tribal marking evolved from a burning man gifting art over 10 years ago into a full blown business. For me it’s a ritual, and a way to connect and heal through art.
The style is a mixture of ancient and modern script inspired from Hebrew, Arabic, and Sanskrit. Q: What is tribal marking?Īmir: Tribal marking is an art form and a movement of connection through art and adornment. See more Amir’s work at and, and check out our Q&A with him below: Armed with an array of body paint pens in a fanny pack, Amir roams the festival, painting, connecting, and reminding us that we are unique, but also part of one big, beautiful tribe. If you’ve been to a Wanderlust Festival you’ve probably seen his flowing, intricate scripts adorning many attendees. How do you make your mark in the world? Amir Magal makes his on other people’s bodies, through an ongoing art project called Tribal Marking.
