The Beauty We Wear
Size: 2 x 3 feet
Medium: Mixed media painting (Real hair and beads)
Description:
The Beauty We Wear celebrates hair as crown, language, and living art. Created with real hair and carefully placed beads, this piece explores the cultural significance and versatility of African hairstyles.
Hair, in this work, is not merely aesthetic — it is identity, ceremony, creativity, and pride. The beaded accents symbolize adornment and the intentional way beauty is carried in everyday life.
This artwork honors the artistry of styling, the heritage behind each braid and coil, and the quiet confidence that comes from wearing one’s crown fully.
