In Focus: Mona Hatoum’s ‘Hair Necklace (silver)’ (2025) at West Bund Art & Design until 16 November.⁠
⁠
Made up of carefully collected strands of the artist’s own shed hair rolled into beads, the very first iteration of Mona’s ‘necklace’ was displayed in a shop window at the famous French jeweller Cartier, in Bordeaux, in 1995.⁠
⁠
Thirty years on, Mona has collected her silvered hair to create ‘Hair Necklace (silver)’ (2025), making a reference to the precious metal and elevating its status from abject material to jewellery.⁠
