Nora TOUNSI, Patutiki Tattoo (DOCUMENTARY & STREET 2025)

Taken during a cultural convention, this image documents the freehand Patutiki design process, where motifs are first drawn with pen directly on the skin before tattooing. Through in-camera double exposure, I sought to capture both the ritual preparation and the quiet intensity of a portrait marked by the Polynesian tradition.
