About this work

This is just hair—lots of it—piled up in a messy knot. The strands are tangled and sticky, like someone sprayed glue on them. The whole thing sits on a flat, see-through sheet that looks almost like paper. The hair isn’t brushed or neat. It’s all crammed together, with some strands sticking out in weird directions. The sheet it’s on is clear, so you can see right through it. Next, check out Mona Hatoum.
