Munson Steed shows ‘Shero Circles’ at ‘HAIRarchy’ art exhibition

Hair is a defining element of Black culture, and Black history month is the perfect time to explore the evolution of its roots. Rolling out founder and publisher, Munson Steed, unveiled his artistic ode to our heritage with his open edition print “Shero Circles,” at “HAIRarchy: A Celebration of the Black Hair Experience.”

Curated by Asia Hamilton, the exhibit opened Saturday, Feb. 8, 2020, at the Norwest Gallery of Art in Detroit. The exhibition’s theme explores the black hair experience, highlighting the importance of African American hair trends, culture and heritage. The event also commemorated the second-year anniversary for NGA.

“HAIRarchy” features works by; Hamilton, Steed, Sabrina Nelson, Khleo Morris, Lebohang Motaung, Deja Milany, Stacie Monday, Franchesca Lamarre, Megan White, April Shipp, Errin Whitaker, Bre’ann White, Cannaday Chapman, Lia Zamor, and Nicole Grant. Each of the artists’ work offers a layered story about the integral role hair plays in our culture. Mediums ranged from paint and digital photography to textiles such as synthetic hair.

Steed’s “Shero Circles” is part of his 24/7 series entitled Images of Us.  “All of our women are sheroes,” Steed said. “It’s a tribute to their honor; her hair is gold and has all the colors, but it’s less stereotypical,” he added. Several attendees bought copies of Steed’s piece and his inspirational children’s book, “Little Professor Skye’s Favorite Things.”

For Hamilton, styling her hair has been a journey, which is illustrated through her two vinyl pieces “Poppin” and “Loving My Long Lux Hair.”

“I had my hair locked for 20 years and once I cut my locks off, I was able to be more versatile, so this imagery speaks to that. It’s a whole different life and I’m learning that if you’re gonna have a wig, you gotta have the glue — there are tools [for] that. So in the images, they’re using tools, be it a hairbrush or something for their edges, it’s all a part of our culture,” explained Hamilton whose father owned a beauty salon when she was growing up.

Shipp’s soft sculpture, “Endangered Species” speaks to the historic and present-day trials and triumphs of Black women. “We are replicated, imitated, degraded and never appreciated. We are the only people who have laws governing our hair,” she said.

Nelson who is a longstanding and revered member of Detroit’s art community was featured in the exhibit along with one of her former students, Lia Zamor. She made sure to facetime Zamor, who was unable to attend in person. Nelson humbly noted how her past protégés inspire her. “The interesting thing is because I’ve been in this community for a long time, they also teach me. Some of the best teachers are those who can also learn from their students,” she said.

“HAIRarchy: A Celebration of the Black Hair Experience” is on display at the Norwest Gallery of Art, now through Feb. 29.

I am showing my age but for some of us “Above the fold,” still has meaning. Here’s the 411. Back in the day, centuries ago when newspaper printing presses printed on large sheets of paper. The newspaper after being delivered would get folded in half at the newsstand. The only part of the newspaper visible to the passerby was the top half. So newspapers in an effort to market their papers would put their best stories on the front page, with big bold captions at the top of the fold to attract readers. Smart marketing for the times. In the digital age with social media top of the fold may only mean the story is on the home page for a few hours until a new lead or breaking news comes in. But there’s nothing sweeter then picking up a newspaper and looking at your client on the front section page, Above and Below the Fold! This is what our work looks like. #asiahamilton #NorwestGallery #Norwestgalleryofart #art #artist #artists #Detroitart #sheboss #influencers #influencer #influenceher #artgallery #artofinstagram #artwork #artistsofinstagram #hairarchy #blackhistorymonth #blackart #blackair #natural #naturalhairjourney #naturalhairstyles #kinkyhair #kinkycurly (at Detroit, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8_dFcYlNCy/?igshid=1tjcba1fneedw
