ARCHÈO artzine
ARCHÈO artzine by Omega Kunst.
<< “ARCHÈO”, meaning “ancient”, “primitive”.
It is a prefix used in many scientific and philosophical terms to indicate something belonging to the past or to the primordial. For example, in archaeology, “archeo-“ refers to the study of the remains and traces of the human past.
These are the elements from which my collection of works was born, proposed in this small book entirely handmade, the result of research and passion for these themes, which through the symbols of ancient civilizations, still speak to us in a lively way with a subtle, magical and unconscious language, and which can still live today through the equally ancient art, or impulse, of tattooing, as an apotropaic act.
Icons that represent the force and the vital principle that generate the phenomena of life, a primordial force that dominates the world from which everything comes and to which everything will return.
Each of these proposals is available to be tattooed.
The mini book is available for consultation and for those who want to purchase it. I will also be happy to give a copy to anyone who wants to undertake one of these tattoos.
The mini book is 15x21,5 cm, hand-crafted and hand-bounded, coming in different cover colours.>>
