This artwork is referred to as tattoo art in metropolitan areas. According to tribal belief, godna art is the only decoration that people keep after they pass away. Godna is applied for aesthetic and spiritual purposes. All motifs used in godna art were gathered from primary and secondary sources. The aim of the study was to determine whether people were aware of godna art. A research plan was created. According to the consumer preferences digitalisation of godna motifs was done.
