Could you explain why you use hair?
I use hair because it is a fragile, delicate medium. It is "barely there", like the fleeting nature of the dreams I often depict in my imagery.
I like to reference Victorian hair work, because it simultaneously functions as a chilling memento mori while enduring as the poignant physical presence of a loved one. Hair is both sensual and repelling.
