The Acorn Within Her

Commission: Hector's Global Hair. The brief was to create a print that was African inspired and that represented nature and beauty. When creating this project I did a lot of research I wanted to create pieces that were strong and I looked into the Acorn tree and like the fact that its one of the smallest seeds yet it grows the biggest tree just like a powerful woman I also took inspirations from an African proverb that says; ‘A little bush grows better than a big tree.’ Creative Director & hair stylist -Hector Obeng, Photographer: Matt Marsh, Stylist; Philomena Kankam Obeng, Make up Artist; Amanda Thorel, Assistant Stylist & Print Designer; Theodora Adjepong
