The body of the text: Ritual tattoos of Cambodia
Presented by Mr. Olivier de Bernon, Director of Studies at the French School of the Far East and member of the Academy of Overseas Sciences
On the occasion of its recent restoration by the technicians of the Bophana Center, Mr. Olivier de Bernon will present the film: The body of the text: Ritual tattoos of Cambodia co-directed with Olivier Delpoux in 1997.
Cambodia tattoos are texts. Their graphic composition, the spectacular rituals that accompany their completion, and the power attributed to them illustrate a completely original vision of Buddhism specific to Southeast Asia.
