Bu çalışma, Amazigh (Berberi) kadınlarına özgü geleneksel dövme motiflerinin üç boyutlu (3B) yazıcı teknolojileri aracılığıyla dijitalleştirilmesini ve çağdaş tasarım uygulamalarıyla yeniden üretilmesini konu edinmektedir. Amazigh (Berberi) dövmeleri, yalnızca bireysel süsleme değil; aynı zamanda kimlik, kabile aidiyeti, doğurganlık ve inançlara dair bilgileri taşıyan kültürel sembollerdir. Ancak sömürgecilik, dini muhafazakârlık ve modernleşme süreçleri bu sembolleri görünmezleştirmiştir. Bu nedenle çalışma, kaybolma riski taşıyan bu kültürel miras ögelerini dijital ortamda yeniden temsil ederek hem korunmalarını hem de çağdaş üretim süreçlerine entegre edilmelerini amaçlamaktadır. Araştırma kapsamında seçilen semboller, vektörel çizimlerle dijital ortama aktarılmış; modelleme teknikleriyle 3B form haline getirilmiş ve üç boyutlu yazıcıdan çıktısı alınarak baskı-desen kalıplarına dönüştürülmüştür. Elde edilen kalıplar ile tekstil yüzeylerine uygulamalar yapılmıştır. Çalışma, kültürel sembollerin sadece arşivlenmek yerine, etkileşimli ve üretken biçimlerde yeniden var edilmesinin, kültürel süreklilik açısından taşıdığı önemi vurgulamaktadır. Bu yönüyle çalışma, dijital kültürel miras, tasarım antropolojisi ve üretim teknolojileri arasında disiplinlerarası bir bağ kurmayı hedeflemektedir.

TRANSFORMING AMAZIGH WOMEN’S TATTOOS INTO PRİNT–PATTERN TEMPLATES USING 3D PRİNTİNG TECHNOLOGY IN THE CONTEXT OF CULTURAL HERITAGE PRESERVATİON

Öz

This study examines the digitization of traditional tattoo motifs specific to Amazigh (Berber) women through three-dimensional (3D) printing technologies and their reproduction through contemporary design practices. Amazigh (Berber) tattoos are not only personal adornments; they are also cultural symbols conveying information about identity, tribal affiliation, fertility, and beliefs. However, colonialism, religious conservatism, and modernization have rendered these symbols invisible. Therefore, this study aims to re-present these cultural heritage elements, which are at risk of disappearing, in the digital environment, both for their preservation and their integration into contemporary production processes. The selected symbols were transferred to the digital environment as vector drawings, transformed into 3D forms using modeling techniques, and then printed onto a 3D printer to create print-pattern patterns. The resulting patterns were then applied to textile surfaces. The study emphasizes the importance of recreating cultural symbols in interactive and productive ways, rather than merely archiving them, for cultural continuity. In this respect, the study aims to establish an interdisciplinary link between digital cultural heritage, design anthropology and production technologies.
