Mehndi+Design


 * Mehndi**

Key concept: Aesthetics Related concept(s): Style, Expression Global context: Identities and relationships

Statement of inquiry: Humans may form their identities and relationships with others built around aesthetics. Expressions of style can tell us about ones status.

Inquiry questions: Factual—Do we have body modification traditions and rituals in our culture? Conceptual—What is body decoration and modification really about? Why do we decorate our bodies? Debatable— Does decorative art always need to be beautiful? Do you think that body modification is destructive? Is there more than one way to draw?

Process Journals research pages - Do some research into two different cultures that use body decoration. Write 10 facts, **include illustrations**, write the source of your information. Critique the decorations, say what you like and don't like about them, and what (in your opinion) they add-to or say about that culture.
 * One page will be Indian Mehndi design and the other page can be a culture of your choosing.**

- Place your hand on a page in your Process Journal, draw around it, have a go at a Mehndi design on that hand.
