Body Writing, an expression of sensuality. A powerful expression of the self

Body Writing, an expression of sensuality
It is called Body Writing and is mistakenly considered a variant of Body Painting

It is called Body Writing and is mistakenly considered a variant of Body Painting (i.e., the art of painting the body for artistic purposes).
It comes from Japan, where it is considered a truly erotic practice.

Peter Greenaway in his “The Pillow Book” was inspired by reading a book written by a Japanese court lady in the 10th century AD.

In the movie, the beautiful Nagiko (played by Vivian Wu) experiences the pinnacle of pleasure by having it written on her skin while lying in bed.

The protagonist’s search for true love takes place through these epidermal verses and coincides with the search for perfect writing.

In the Eastern calligraphic tradition, the gesture of writing is a powerful expression of the self.

Indeed, writing words in Japanese culture refers to both textual content and aesthetics.

Moreover, a time-consuming game creates great intimacy, strengthens complicity and stimulates the imagination.

Not to mention that the act of writing on skin with a brush is not only an expression of sensuality, but also stimulates epidermal receptors.

One caution.
Before experimenting with body writing, it is important to make sure that you use non-toxic paints.

There are several on the market today that are specifically formulated not to cause allergic reactions on the skin.
