Rationale
Hair being an universally captivating element, that has been moulded and adorned in diverse ways across cultures, reflecting personal, political, religious, and stylistic beliefs. Its intruiging adaptability positions it as a compelling subject for mapping and exploration. This design strategy centres the intricate tapestry of black hair within an African context, the history of braiding and black hair as the compass to the project’s direction.
