In this series my aim is to visually interpret and explore all the qualities and symbols of hair as perceived by different cultures. Hair is a powerful symbol of individual and group identity, extremely personal and public at the same time. In most cultures hair represents beauty, strength, freedom, wealth and health and is often associated with youth and sexuality.According to other cultures long hair is needed to cover women's body when buried as they lack clothes.
