They are not just a simple “mark” that is engraved in our skin and body. It represents their life, their stories to tell, and the hardships they conquered. Tattoos and body modifications are their reminder that they survived and continuously surviving life’s challenges. A reminder that is worth every suffering to be marked in our skins and bodies forever.
Tattoos and other forms of body modification have existed since the dawn of time. However, there has always been a stigma associated with it, even now. With this campaign, MarkaLikha aims to break that stigma and enlighten to look at the bigger picture rather than just the outside appearance. There are meaningful reasons why people get tattooed and undergo bodily modifications, as stated in this quotation. They have tattoos that strengthen their souls, whether they are international artists, local artists, indigenous people, ancient times, or ordinary people.
