Henna Art
This photo was taken right after I got a piece of “henna art” painted onto my arm. It happened during my visit to the Moroccan pavilion at “EXPO 2017 Astana”. This plant-based skin dye art carries significant symbolic importance and is considered beneficial for both the mind and the soul. It is said that the best medicine is often the one the earth gives us, and henna is one of the perfect hidden gems transmitted from generation to generation. It is not just a temporary fast tattoo; indeed, authentic Moroccan henna art is a craft that requires years of practice and entails a broad spectrum of various styles, techniques, symbolisms, traditions, and rituals. Prior to the beginning of the drawing process, a master should know how to make a perfect henna paste from natural ingredients and achieve the right structure and colour. This process alone requires years of continuous practice. Additionally, henna artists follow their intuition in their hands-on-technique, making sure that every work is truly unique. Combining the motifs in an endless variation also takes years of study and practice.
