I love how lifelike her paintings are and how they take something that for black woman is simple and mundane and makes it look so artistic. It's a really special exhibition and it really urged me to take pride in my African locs.

Art x Hair
Check out this brilliant braid & Hair painting by Soo Yoon Lym. The Korean born artist lived in Uganda for seven years and when she was 15 she made a life changing decision by studying with Korean exiled painter, Ung No Lee in Normandy, France. She says it was then that she discovered that summer how "art was inextricably tied to nature and my life."
