Abtract idea:
"26280 hours, 1095 days, 36 months, 3 years
That was the amount of time in which I have grown my long hair. It was also the amount of time that I’ve experienced life, freedom, youth and maturity. That was when I got a clearer sense of who I was, what I wanted, what I could do and what I had to do. In that amount of time I’ve learned to open my heart to feelings. Those days have changed my current self.
I used my own hair, a part of me which I have grown in the past 3 years as material in this piece. Hair has always been the symbol of every human characteristic. Especially to a woman, hair is the symbol of her beauty and soul. I have used my own material to tell my own story. I weaved my hair together with time and feelings to be able to feel, to touch and to caress the feelings in the past."
