Creates art
using human hair.The reason I work with human hair is that hair has symbolic significance: beauty, strength, health, attraction, etc. The moment it is separated from the human all these factors turn around, hair is considered dirty, unsavoury and dead.
Hair is also an important indicator of our life, as well in the past as in the present.
Hair shows us when we reach maturity (pubic, chest and armpit hair) and also shows us when we reach the menopause (we become grey and bald). It shows our age and health.
