AFRICA ETIOPIA SURMA I Suri o Surma utilizzano i loro corpi come una tela e la terra come tavolozza, a prescindere dall'aspetto ludico, sono estremamente orgogliosi delle loro creatività, non si tratta di manifestazioni carnevalesche ma di espressioni d'arte necessarie, si dipingono l'un l'altro e non hanno uno scopo decorativo, ma di disponibilità, di prestigio sociale; sono molto attenti e consapevoli di fare qualcosa d'importante. I pigmenti puri e concentrati sono ricavati dall'ambiente in cui vivono e una volta spalmati sui corpi riflettono una luce intensa, ogni giorno si dipingono i corpi senza i tabù, senza moralismi (occidentali), omaggiano il corpo e ne esaltano la sensualità. Fin da piccoli imparano dalle loro madri la gestualità dei segni colorati in piena libertà accompagnati da una straordinaria freschezza, sono soprattutto gli adolescenti a praticare con frequenza questa forma artistica, la loro inventiva è basata sulle reazioni dei compagni , in particolare è derivata dal successo di richieste fotografiche di fotografi come me entusiasti di fotografarli. I Surma sono molto vicini alla natura e si adornano con grande spontaneità di piante, fiori, rami. Ho desiderato fortemente conoscere questa fantastica popolazione e sono stato ripagato alla grande dalle loro rappresentazioni artistiche.

Apparently the Suri are a bit 'vain :-)
Looking at this picture I think that actually the nature offers many ornaments of great beauty.
Compliments.
