MOKO INK
Maori and Polynesian Tattoo, Design and Sculpture Read more »
Moko. n. tattooing of the face or body
The reason why we wore the tattoo on our face was to show everyone who we are… Family, Tribe, Status etc. Using a complex language of marks, made in ink and carved into the skin, one could determine anothers identity.
To make or to wear moko and not understand it’s language is to breach the oldest copyright in the world.
