"Originally this was a college project. We were to choose a current or past event / article and create a narrative piece from it. I chose the "Natural Hair Ban of Pretoria High" that unfolded back in 2016. I created a set of 6 paintings that depict black cultural and natural hairstyles worn by black people all over the world. The black women here are seen rejoicing in their hair, through expressions of pride, joy and love. Its a direct juxtaposed response to the ban on hair and made to encourage black people all over the world who are discriminated against because of their hair"
