Meet Amir Magal | Artist Founder of Tribal Markers

We had the good fortune of connecting with Amir Magal and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Amir, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?

I found myself immersed in countless hours in front of the computer screen as a photographer. What began as an experiment in self-expression, ignited by the transformative experience of the Burning Man Festival, evolved into a business venture. Initially, it was a means to connect my art with a human touch, emphasizing the importance of personal connection in the creative process.

However, as its popularity grew, the focus shifted. It became not just about personal expression, but also about sharing experiences with others. This transition led to the development of a body marker, a tool with multifaceted applications beyond what I initially imagined.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I deeply cherish the diverse array of individuals and projects I’ve had the honor to collaborate with through the medium of Tribal Markers. This art form has empowered a reserved artist like myself to foster one-on-one connections and cultivate a foundation of intimacy. It is within these personal spaces that I’ve come to understand the profound value of genuine connections and authentic creative expression. These experiences have not only opened doors but have also introduced me to encounters I once thought impossible.

This ethos lies at the core of our company’s narrative – to maintain deep connections and act as a clear conduit for artistic expression and messaging. With each group we engage with, we plant seeds of intention that transcend the fleeting nature of paint, enduring a lifetime despite its temporary presence.

With every group we engage with, we sow seeds of intention that endure far beyond the transient nature of paint, lasting a lifetime despite its ephemeral presence.
