My favorite Afghan-Uzbek dancer. All I know that he’s from North Afghanistan. Anyway I really admire his skills, his charisma, the way he communicates with audience, his moves, his gaze, his smile — everything is just fascinatingly enchanting. And the way he looks genuinely happy when he dances, it reassures me. He is certainly one of my most favorite beautiful beings and I sincerely wish him health and luck, may God guard him 💙
Same awesome performer in my previous drawing
PS: In case you watch the videos in the second link post, please don’t pay attention to all the negative and hateful comments, many of them are just ignorant about the different culture, which, at least, started to get better. I do not in any way protect any offenses or crimes, however I can’t allow the innocent and talented artists to be confused with some gruesome thing. Let’s just prevent misconceptions and learn to think logically. Thank you.
Italian Ballet Dancer Luigi Campa in “Kaiko” filmed by Stefano Moro Van Wyk.
The Extension of Evolution–The story of transformation unfolds in photographer Stefano Moro Van Wyk’s latest film project starring dancer Luigi Campa. Titled “Kaiko,” the Japanese name for a silkworm’s journey towards becoming a moth, the film was inspired by Stefano’s trip to Japan, and his fascination with the volatility of nature. Just as a silkworm undergoes “kaiko” to become a beautiful moth, dance serves as a catalyst of transformation, as Luigi evolves into elegance and grace as the video concludes.

“(Warning! Long post! Also, Trigger Warning for discussions of rape, violence, gender, and sexuality!) Ishtar, the ancient Babylonian goddess of love, war, and sex is a complex figure. She evolved from the goddess Inanna in the earliest civilization in the world; ancient Sumer. (Modern day Iraq.) Her figure is at least 5,000 years old and her worship enjoyed popularity throughout all ages of Mesopotamia. (Unlike many other goddesses whose popularity waxed and waned.) She had many aspects, that added to her character over the ages. It was because of this some scholars theorize that Ishtar may have originally been a combination of several local goddess, which explains the complexity of her character.
While the mainstream academic view is that of Ishtar being a spoiled “brat”, trying to get what she wants, and that of a capricious teenager in mythology, this view ignores what could be garnered from modern feminist interpretations. Looking at it from an ancient perspective, Ishtar is an independent woman in patriarchal societies that frowned upon that sort of thing.
In a modern perspective, Ishtar stood up for herself when she was raped, back in time when rape wasn’t always a big deal, owned her own sexuality, was independent of men, and remained an important figure of fertility in nature.It was because Mesopotamians didn’t like demonizing and oppressing their goddesses too much, even if they went out of the gender norm, that the wild aspect of Ishtar’s lust (Killili) and violence seem to have contributed to the myth of Lilith, a more popular feminist figure of the modern age. Lilith (Babylonian Lilitu) became then, and subsequently in cultures who inherited the myth (Israelites), a woman that was used towarn other women about the dangers of being independent woman in a society where women were owned by the males of their respective families. (In fact the Babylonian word for “prostitute” and “independent woman”, both of which Ishtar and Lilith typically identify, are similar for such reasons because both ideals are looked down upon in their respective societies.)
This essay will explore Ishtar’s character and myths in the ancient world, while offering a modern feminist interpretation of such mythology. She can be used a modern symbol of female empowerment, much in the same way her maiden Lilith is used by feminists. (The main reason why Ishtar is not viewed in the same lense of Lilith, is because Lilith enjoyed being interpreted by Romantic artists of the Victorian period and evolved into a symbol of modern Jewish feminism. Whereas, Ishtar became hopelessly lost in the veils of time, mostly.)”
