The Bust

Across the Afro-Caribbean diaspora, hair has played a significant role, from defining cultures and beauty to personal expressions of identity, it intrinsically accompanies the Black experience. In this multi textured work, here is portrayed a Black woman with textured hair, Nelly, as she is depicted as fictional marble bust of a goddess, this is reminiscent of the ancient Greeks sculptures which are held up as the epitome of measured beauty.
