Amazigh-tatoeage: Symbolen, verhalen en de verdwijnende kunst van Noord-Afrika
Voorouderlijke inkt. Heilige symbolen. Een cultuur gegrift in de huid.
Dit baanbrekende boek neemt je mee op een indrukwekkende reis door de vergeten kunst van de Amazigh- (Berberse) tatoeages-een eeuwenoude Noord-Afrikaanse traditie die ooit van moeder op dochter werd doorgegeven en nu langzaam in stilte vervaagt.
Van de afgelegen bergen van de Rif en de Atlas tot de uitgestrekte Sahara waar de Toeareg rondtrekken, verkent Amazigh Tatoeage de diepe betekenissen achter de geometrische motieven die eeuwenlang op de lichamen van Amazigh-vrouwen zijn aangebracht. Door historisch onderzoek, mondelinge overlevering, culturele inzichten en symbolische analyses te verweven, onthult dit boek een wereld waarin identiteit, schoonheid, spiritualiteit en verzet samenkomen-niet geschreven in boeken, maar geëtst in de huid.
Binnenin ontdek je:
- Een visuele gids van traditionele Amazigh-tatoeagesymbolen en hun culturele betekenissen
- De geschiedenis van tatoeëren in Noord-Afrika, van het Neolithicum tot het Oude Egypte
- Echte verhalen en getuigenissen van de laatste generaties met tatoeages
- De invloed van kolonialisme, religie en moderniteit op deze verdwijnende praktijk
- Een blik op de heropleving onder moderne Amazigh-kunstenaars en vrouwen in de diaspora
- Indrukwekkende illustraties en symbolische verwijzingen uit verschillende regio's en stammen
Of je nu een cultuuronderzoeker, tatoeëerder, historicus bent of gewoon geraakt wordt door de schoonheid van inheemse tradities, dit boek biedt een intiem en onvergetelijk portret van een van de meest betekenisvolle en verdwijnende kunstvormen van Noord-Afrika.
Bewaren is herinneren. Begrijpen is eren.
