Francesca Fiore “Hair”
Phoenix Gallery
This event has ended.
Hair is a performance that explores intimacy among women through the physical act of cutting hair and the sense of trust and closeness it imbues. Using the delicate framework of a personal memory, and accompanied by the women with whom I have felt a strong feminine connection, I will attempt to conjure the childhood experience of attending a small hair salon with my mother, and my ritual of building nests from the clippings of her hair.Based in a familial history with Alzheimer’s and ritualistic traditions, my work seeks to navigate the complicated space of memory within the clutter of contemporary life.
