Abstract

In this doctoral monograph, I present a phenomenological reading of the intertwining between aesthetic experience and intersubjective relationships established in the Traditional Japanese Tattooing practice in Brazil. In order to explore the practice, I carried out a research that combined ethnography with the artistic life history method. The results are presented in three chapters. In the first chapter, I introduce the targeted field of problems, in which the themes of the body, image and tattoo are found, followed by the research objectives and the chosen methodology. In the second chapter, I present the social history of the practice of traditional Japanese Tattooing, followed by its incorporation into urban tattooing world. In the third chapter, I present the results of the research, exploring the aesthetic experience and the intersubjective relationships involved in the practice of Traditional Japanese Tattooing in Brazil. I hope, with this work, to contribute to studies on tattooing in human sciences, as well as to contribute to the rich and current debate about cultural hybridity (AU)
