Fragile Resilience
Glenelys Josefina
This project is a continuation of the earlier work Hair Power, which focused on celebrating Afro-textured hair. In these new experiments, Glenelys explores the tension between beauty, pain, and identity by combining cyanotype with hair relaxer, a chemical product historically associated with the adaptation of natural hair to Western beauty standards. The work investigates what happens when these two processes—the preserving and archival qualities of cyanotype and the destructive force of relaxer—meet on a single surface.
