27 | hobby artist | Netherlands I'm a super chaotic, neurospicy person struggling with ADHD. I'm passionate about wildlife, deer specifically. I collect skulls and other taxidermy, and I like to take photographs of wildlife. I watch a lot of anime. I work a fulltime job+education in nature management. Art used to be my job, but is now just a hobby on the side. I'm passionate about my worldbuilding/species project Arcanus.

Maori Moko or Ta Moko is the traditional facial tattooing of the Maori people in New Zealand. Their practice is considered sacred and regarded as a Taonga (treasure) to the Maori people. It is created by carving the face using an Uhi (chisel made of albatross bone) and applying the ink by striking it with a mallet using burnt embers of a tree as ink in the grooves of torn flesh.

Each & every Moko contains messages that tell a story of its wearer’s strong link to his ancestral roots, rankings in the social class, and achievements. Moko is considered as markings of aristocracy & adulthood. 

Men & Women receive Moko on their faces, buttocks and hips. Women usually wear it on their chins, lips & forehead.

Modern day tattooers take this symbolic art form just as seriously as their predecessors. They alter the techniques with electric machines because some designs are exclusive to the Maori people only.

Never under-estimate a sleep-deprived Enaxn listening to Shaggy and Flo Rida.  Because she finishes things.
