Kerry Hawley, 23, a talented Cambridge University student, loves to surprise audiences with unexpected know-how. So, a young Englishwoman creates interesting crafts - openwork and almost weightless necklaces. These original jewelry are made of natural material - human hair. The works of the craftswoman caused a stir in the art environment, causing mixed feelings and different reactions from the audience: from delight to disgust.
Kerry Howley has always pondered this paradox. On the one hand, people try to take care of their hair in every possible way and are proud of their thick (or not so) hair. But, on the other hand, they treat lost or cut hair at least with disgust. Kerry Hawley decided to deal a crushing blow to disgust. With the help of openwork weaving from hair.
The original jewelry of an English student is an attempt to find a middle ground between the feelings of admiration for a "live" hairstyle and aversion to cut hair. Is it possible to change the attitude of the viewer and create works of art that he could like? Or even experience opposite feelings at the same time?
The raw material for the original jewelry was supplied by a longtime friend of her mother, who rarely goes to the hairdresser: a woman usually lets her hair down to her waist and gets her hair cut once every five years. When the next five-year plan ended, 30-centimeter strands went into the undivided use of Kerry Hawley for artistic experiments.
Kerry Hawley's original decorations are reminiscent of monograms from old wallpaper or patterns on frosty glass - whoever likes what better. The disgustingly adorable collection includes 5 necklaces woven from human hair. For each piece of art that evokes mixed feelings, the talented craftswoman spent more than two and a half days.
