DHAGO

Back to the origins of the tribe of flower-men, rooted on the Mentawai Islands in Indonesia for 5,000 years. Coming from the Tibetan-Burmese highlands, this woman illustrates the history of these people with two symbols: the red ribbon called 'dhago' that Tibetan women put in their braids and the hibiscus being the flower that adorns the bodies of both women and men of the Mentawai.
