Thank you so much for your interest and applying for the She Warrior Project. Naomi Shanti is so excited to work in collaboration with Carmen Rojas an Ocala, Florida sculptor and art educator. Currently Naomi is seeking 10 tattoo models for this collaboration project.
About the Project: She Warrior (Geurreras) will consist of taking 12 sculptures created by Carmen Rojas and creating 12 unique tattoo pieces from the sculpture design. The tattoo pieces will include one of Carmen's sculptures along with Naomi's depiction of the Guerrera utilizing organic elements inspired by nature which will create a soft yet dynamic juxtaposition.
You would make a great candidate for this project if the story behind this project resonates with you in any way. Whether you are the warrior or you know a warrior! All Gender Identities are encouraged to apply!
She Warrior (Guerreras) Story: As a collaborative team we seek to create a conversation about the experiences of women, their strength and ingenuity. To bring forth a conversation about the beauty and trials that come with being a mother, wife, daughter, sister, friend and above all being a woman. Guerreras is a celebration and an act of defiance against what restricts the expression of our femininity. Above all, this is a proposal of Education and motivation.
In this series of Guerreras, each one of the pieces is immortalized, showing the challenge of the force that is projected with contradictions between the selected materials (metal and the skin) and what aesthetics, sensuality and elegance are. These sculptures exude firmness, balance and strength as will each tattoo.
A woman is not solely what you see in the mirror, it’s a state of being that comes from within. A woman develops the strength and confidence to choose who she wants to be. She carries that strength and virtue and watches it grow and evolve through every stage of life.
Please answer ALL questions on this application. Once you have submitted this form Naomi will be in contact with you within 72 hours to discuss further if you will be a fit for the project, and if so a consultation will be required before scheduling the tattoo appointment. Thank you so much again.
