The ART of Scarification





Scarification, a more intense form of tattooing, has been around for centuries and is still in usage in indigenous society as ritualistic branding. Most find it gruesome; I find it beautiful. Instead of using a cloth canvas they chose to turn their body into walking canvases; its not different from any other form of self-expression. View the video below and see the beauty in such a brutal act.
