Hair Matters

Hair Matters Exhibition
Hair Matters Exhibition 
Myself and my artwork - Expectations at Hair Matters
Hair Matters was an exhibition which spread across 5 venues in Dalston, London.  The exhibition examined the social and cultural symbolism of hair in the 21st century and featured the work of six young, queer artists who explore the personal and political significance of hair and body hair as incredibly charged symbols of identity. The public interventions included photo manipulations, work with textiles, collage material, graphic design, ephemera and audio material.
I was very happy to have been chosen for the exhibition and commissioned to create a new piece for the show.  I decided to make a piece about pubic hair and the expectations of female bodies.
