Walter Benjamin wrote "To live is to leave traces."
The 45 drawings in Hairshow depict the daily traces of an internal act or thought process. Much like lines of a pencil or paintbrush - extending like thoughts from the head, these pieces reference contraction and expansion via types of hair --bone straight, kinky or wavy.
