‘African Triptych I’ is a set of three studies of the powerful sculptural forms found in African hair styles reflecting their social hierarchy within their tribe. Some believed hair could help divine communication as it was the highest part fo the body and could be elevated even further. The styling of the hair is a very trusted process given to close relatives as it was believed if a strand fell into the hands of an enemy they could harm the owner. It is was and is a very social activity which everyone can relate to. These studies went on the inspire ‘African Triptych II’ which combines the study with art and masks from the same tribes.
