Join visual artist & founder of the Bald Black Girl(s) project , Ruth Sutoyé for the screening of her film ‘Reign’ and a panel discussion.
Centring the narratives of Black women who choose to shave their heads, the multi-disciplinary Bald Black Girl(s) project explores perceptions of masculinity, femininity and androgyny alongside sexuality, gender identity and barbershop dynamics.
‘Reign’ is a short afro-futuristic visual offering that re-imagines a world where only bald/low shaven exist.
