Ancestral Honor of the Atayal (Mug)
According to legend, the ancestors of the Atayal were born from a crack in a rock. To bear children, the sister painted her face black and pretended to be another woman, marrying her brother. Thus began their tradition of facial tattoos. This work is inspired by their headdresses and tattoos, symbols of honor affirming a man’s ability to hunt and a women’s ability to weave, which allowed them to wed.
