Photos & Video: Unruly Art Show At BSOA
Unruly — an art exhibition which was the brainchild of Zina Edwards which serves as a “celebration of the power, beauty, and artistry of Black hair — is being showcased at the Bermuda Society of Arts [BSOA].
Ms Edwards previously said, “Like many other Black people in Bermuda and across the African diaspora, I have been entangled in the dynamics of Black hair from childhood. My curls and coils, perms, and braids, have been a part of my personal expression, a marker of my ancestral heritage, and [since my transition to natural in 1989] as a totem of my personal freedom despite societal demands to tame it. The barbershop maintains its place as a key social space for Black men. The act of braiding our children’s, partners or elders hair is an intimate experience that strengthens bonds and builds memories that are unique to the culture.”
