Photographer Notes:<br />
(left) Muun tribe lady from a remote area of Myanmar, close to Bangladeshi<br />
border in Chin region. These women are known for their facial tattoos. Tattoos<br />
were applied to thirteen year old girls to ensure they were not taken against<br />
their will. This tradition was outlawed many years ago and will die within a<br />
generation.<br />
(above) Paduand woman at Lake Inle. Copper rings were applied to push down<br />
the shoulder plates and make neck appear longer. This practice comes with health<br />
concerns, and is now outlawed. Younger generations do wear neck rings but with<br />
no shoulder plate pressure, so their natural posture is not affected.<br />
