Bubi Tribal Lady Bodypaint - CG Character by Surajit Sen

Bubi Tribal Lady Bodypaint - CG Character

Inspired by Equatorial Guinea Bodypainting Festival.

The Body painting is believed to have protected people from evil spirits and even attributed to the powers of divinities to those who wore it. It has its roots in Africa and the Caribbean.

It combines beauty and cultural identity, to say that this art is part of traditional rites

The Bubi people (also known as Bobe, Voove, Ewota and Bantu Bubi) are a Bantu ethnic group of Central Africa who are indigenous to Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea.
Body art is a crucial part of social, spiritual, and personal expression.

Rite of Passage: (Rites of Passage surround milestone events like puberty, coming of age, marriage and death.) Body art also shows the position of a person in a certain group.
