This braid is made of strands of hair from my grandmother, my mother and myself. It is our three-generation portrait. This braid is my tribute to them.

The hair, is a procedure and protection of the skin, as well  as the one who records the growing layers, the physical condition that we are having during our life (born, grow and death).   "Roots ans tips"  is part of the layers of experiences which mark a volatile and provisional character, the experiences like roots and the birth of these as results. The embroidery  of the roots, the woven rope, and the pieces of noble materials, are presented in showcases and instalations, which tell different experiences.
