Growing up, it became clear to me that my hair wasn´t acceptable. I didn´t understand, but apparently my hair wasn´t as beautiful as the silky long hair of the other kids.

​

Everything I knew about my hair said: wrong.
It had to be managed, it had to be tamed and there was so much shame around the topic of my hair.

But black hair is so fascinating, so versatile, so  quirky, so magical.

 

Especially in it's natural state..

​

We celebrate other phenomena, why not the beautiful wonder of black hair? In this project, I want to capture black hair with a sense of wonder and appreciation.
