Headdresses and hair have been an integral feature of black history. Ancient African communities fashioned their hair for more than just style. Hair was a sacred, cultural and spiritual symbol. Headwear and hairstyles not only enhance and beautify the head but often communicate personal and cultural knowledge and attitudes about the human experience and symbolize the sacred power from within.
We are submitting 3 Ubuso sculptures with diffent colours and styles of headwear all signifying different meanings. A most beautiful way to “Take a Stand”.
