Sacred Tattoos of Thailand, Sak Yant book, Joe Cummings 2012, rare tattoo book!

Description: Sacred Tattoos of Thailand: Exploring the Magic, Masters and Mystery of Sak Yan. Rare, out of print book on Sak Yant tattooing. Book is in good condition, some shelf wear to cover, pages are clean. Sacred Tattoos of Thailand: Explore the Magic, Masters and Mystery of Sak Yan is the first illustrated book in English to trace the history and origins of the Tai hand-inked tattoo tradition. While Thailand remains the centre of the cultural form's conservation and development, similar traditions exist today in Cambodia, Laos and parts of Vietnam, China and Burma. The product of 18 months of field research and photography, Sacred Tattoos of Thailand brings the world of this fascinating and commonly misrepresented tradition to light. Rather than sensationalize sak yan and popularize the misconception that the tradition is the stuff of gangsters and bad boys, Sacred Tattoos of Thailand sheds light on the traditions spiritual roots and how it combines into a single belief system elements of Buddhism, Brahmanism and animism, all of which are underpinned by a strict moral and ethical code that is passed from master to disciple.
