Hair is a medium that Black people use to express creativity, to preserve history, and is seen as a symbol of resilience. Created by Hors Pair Social and The Moving Art Gallery, Crépu: Our DNA is an artistic celebration and meditation on Black hair. It is also Ottawa's first ever Black Hair Art Show in which these ideas are explored through photography, film, discussion and performance.
At this third edition of Crépu: Our DNA, activities will include:
- A live hair care demo
- A hair art runway
- Musical and spoken word performances
- Museum presentation
- Screening of a short film
- Reception and music
