THE QI MASTER

THE QI MASTER
Qigong is an ancient art with tremendous depth, and has roots dating back as far as 5,000 years. Qi is frequently translated as life energy, life-force, or energy flow. The masters of "Chi" continue to baffle the scientific world with skills that very few humans can do. In the China town of Urban Java a chi master, only known as "DJ", continues to astound the scientific world with his skills. Qigong Master, "DJ" demonstrates the awesome power and possibility of chi, or "life force" energy. Through a lifelong practice of discipline and meditation, DJ has mastered the art, and is able to channel enormous amounts of chi to produce various effects.

THE LAST TATTOOED WOMEN OF KALINGA

THE LAST TATTOOED WOMEN OF KALINGA | Photography By Jake Verzosa
"Up in the rice terraces of the Cordillera mountain range of the Philippines live the last few tattooed women of Kalinga. Traditional tattooing is seen as archaic and painful by the younger generations of Kalingas. As an Indigenous group that has successfully fought against colonizing forces, it is losing the practice of traditional tattooing because of the changing perspective of beauty and interpretations of the practice by outside scholars. The traditional tattoo is an indigenous body art, an expression of the psychological dimensions of life, health, love and it defines local perceptions of existence. Sadly there is now a decline of the traditional art among indigenous women brought about by the changing perspective of the meaning of the tattoo and its stigmatized practice. It is now considered a vanishing art along with the gatekeepers of the knowledge associated with it."

'SACRED INK' | Photography By Cedric Arnold
"A body, used as a canvas, every inch of skin filled with sacred text and figures of mythical creatures, all forming a protective shield. A boxer, a monk, a construction worker, a police man, a soldier, a taxi driver, a shipyard worker, a shaman, a tattoo master; men, women and their inked protection from evil spirits and bad luck. Enter the world of Thailand’s spiritual “yantra” tattoo tradition."
