Yuni Kim Lang is an hair artist.
quote [Why is it that we have such intimate relationship with our hair and
that no other part of the body seems to hold such a variety of symbolic
power? Hair is a part of our body and therefore part of our individual
identity, and yet it can so easily be changed, detached; transformed. There
is so much information embedded in the way one wears and handles their
hair. There is a fascination once again by the visceral qualities of
hair that seem so alive when it is not. Through the act of manipulating
hair, the photographs tell a story of an individual but also about our
society as a whole. Through the handling of the hair, the personal and
intimate moment is reconstructed].
