Hair Stories II
I'm currently preparing for a new series entitled Hair Stories II. This year, I'll be collecting "hair stories" holding contests and giveaways in anticipation for an exhibition of new work. I'll be integrating collected hair story themes into the work. Want to stay up to date? "Subscribe to the Love" on the right and i'll be sending notifications shortly. Also follow the instagram art account and facebook page.
About the Hair Stories project: my first exhibition in 2017 was series inspired by black hair. It explored the political and social dynamics of black hair drawing from historical and current references and focused on the pride, the shame, and the growth of embracing what has a great history in how we are perceived and how we might perceive ourselves.
