Our national traveling exhibition uses the global art of headwrapping as a way to explore the intersection of faith, fashion and culture through art which asks essential questions about culture, society and the inner lives of individuals. In our contemporary world of social upheaval and religious conflict, this exhibition represents a beam of light. This newly expanded exhibit shall now include photography; video statements by members of the Sikh, Muslim, Jewish, Hebrew Israelite, Christian, African and Hare Krishna communities; historical and cultural artifacts; textiles and headwraps on mannequins.
Compelling photographs, historical and cultural artifacts, multimedia presentations by members of headwrapping communities, textiles and graphic displays offer visitors to BEAUTIFULLY WRAPPED traveling exhibition an eye-opening and engaging opportunity to delve deeper into the intersection between fashion, faith and tradition.
