Spiritual Skin: Magical Tattoos and Scarification , Lars Krutak

10X13” 500+ pgs

Wisdom. Healing. Shamanic Power.Protection….this is a photographic masterwork in two parts exploring the secret world of magical tattooingand scarification across the tribal world. Based on one decade of tattoo anthropologist Dr. Lars Krutak'sfieldwork among animistic and shamanic societies of Asia, Africa, the Americas, and Melanesia.


MAGICAL TATTOOS AND SCARIFICATION journeys into highly sacred territory to reveal howpeople utilize ritual body modification to enhance their access to the supernatural.
………The first part delves into the ancient art of Thai tattooing or sak yant that is administered by holy monks who harness the energy and power of the Buddha himself. Emblazoned with numerous images of dramatically tattooed bodies, this chapter provides tattoo enthusiasts with a passport into the esoteric world of sak yank symbols and their meanings.

Also included is an in-depth study into the tattooing worlds of the Amerindians. From Woodlands warriors to Amazonian shamans, tattoos were worn as enchanted symbols embodied with tutelary and protective spirit power. The discussion of talismanic tattooing is concluded with a detailed look at the individuals who created magical tattoos and the various techniques they used.

Krutak writes about many tribal tattoo designs permeated with various forms of power and explains what these marks mean for the people who wear them.

Part two …

The religious meanings of tribal scarification. The rituals, techniques, and spiritual iconography of scarmasters in Benin, Papua New Guinea, (Kaningara), and Ethiopia (Hamar) expose a relatively undocumented world of permanent body symbolism created through painful and bloody rites of self-sacrifice and restraint.
