This print from Discover Images by AWL showcases the rich cultural traditions of Myanmar's Ann tribe. The image features a woman adorned in vibrant traditional attire, her smiling face framed by a colorful scarf and beaded accessories. However, what truly stands out is her blackened teeth, which hold deep significance within the Ann community. The Ann people believe that blackening their teeth serves as a powerful ward against evil spirits. This unique practice has been passed down through generations and remains an integral part of their identity. As we gaze at this photograph, we are not only witnessing a beautiful representation of tribal fashion but also gaining insight into the spiritual beliefs that shape the lives of these remarkable individuals.
