this Bodypainting is inspired by the tattoos warriors in the Philippines were wearing. It is executed with khidab, the yemenite gall ink
KHIDAB is the Yemeni black waterproof ink for body painting. It is used often instead of henna, but sometimes also in combination, to decorate hands and arms, back, décolleté as well as legs and feet with extended tendril-like patterns.
Khidab is obtained through pyrolysis. Cuprous oxide gives the ink its dark blue-black colour. Dr. Hanne Schönig has described the composition and production in detail in the article: “ Yemeni Women’s Body Painting with Black Gall Ink Khidab, Production Methods”

9th NYC Bodypainting Day was held in Union Square. By the end of the painting, they formed a giant Circle of Hope with each person holding hands together, singing, dancing, sharing for our hopes and dreams. The opposite of hope is hopelessness, which can be an underlying feeling for many people in a world of bad news and challenging circumstances. It is essential that we all stand together in unity for a wonderful future filled with love and beauty that we can all share and pass along to those after us. There were many audiences, including male and female, watching the bodypainting. So many people are holding their camera and cellphone to take pictures of the male and female models.
