an art exhibition by AIRI Jewelry & Gallery


September 12 - October 24


Challenging beauty standards one curl at a time, the exhibit Curls & Coils is an ode to the ways textured hair can transcend into a form of expression and identity for women of color. Vibrant illustrations portray a shared journey toward self-acceptance and empower those whose hair types have historically discriminated against. Each piece celebrates the power reclaimed when choosing to exist unapologetically. Through bold portraits with symbolic flowers, the artist, Maya Alia explores beauty standards, love, and culture to illustrate a story of strength and resilience.


Visit the Crossings Gallery at Harvard Ed Portal to see the artwork on display from Sept 12 to Oct 24, 2024. Free admission. For more details about the art exhibition and related events visit harvard.edu/curls-coils.
