WCMA – Tibetan Sacred Tattoo

Lama Tashi Norbu, traditional Thangka painter & Buddhist monk, featured in the current WCMA exhibition: "Across Shared Waters", designed a tattoo based on Tibetan astrology & created a personal buddhist mantra for Williams College student Isaac Rivera. Norbu chants the mantra as he & N.Adams artist Alexis Rosasco tattoo the design on Rivera's back. The design is meant to empower Rivera's lives for eons.
