African Pride

Medium: Mixed media (Real hair, fabric, and hat)

Description:

African Pride is a bold celebration of identity, heritage, and ancestral dignity. Crafted with real hair, textured fabric, and a sculptural hat element, this piece honors the richness of African culture and the power carried in our appearance.

The use of real hair is intentional, symbolizing lineage, memory, and the stories woven into every strand. The layered materials reflect the depth of tradition, while the confident posture of the subject speaks to ownership of identity in a modern world.

This work is not just a portrait. It is a declaration, that African beauty is regal, rooted, and unapologetic
