Exhibition

27 Oct 2025 to 12 Jan 2026

M7 - White Box Gallery, Ground Floor

Through braiding, adornment and ritual, the exhibition explores how hair carries stories of memory, beauty, resistance, and identity, especially within matrilineal Amazigh cultures. What was once objectified and exoticised through colonial and ethnographic lenses is here reclaimed as a vibrant language of self-expression, sovereignty, and cultural pride. Contemporary artists reimagine inherited forms to reflect the strength, creativity, and dignity embedded in these traditions. Moving from archival material to present-day practice, the exhibition affirms hair as a medium of continuity and transformation. Ultimately, Amazigh Hair Couture offers a compelling statement on the politics of care, representation, and the artistic legacies passed from one generation to the next.


Date: Oct 27, 2025 – Jan 12, 2026
Location: M7 - White Box Gallery, Ground Floor
Access: Free for all!
