HATS, HANDS & HEARTS
- Momoca reflects on her travels through paper transformed -
Travelling is my passion. Hats, Hands & Hearts play a big part of my journey.
Hats
I was a hat designer for many years and still love wearing and observing hats when I travel. Hats are such a personal statement, and they can silently express real cultural identity.
Hands
Hand motif rings on my fingers are my amulets of protection and guidance. Many cultures use hands as a symbol of holiness; I have seen them in jewelry and amulets all around the world. Hands produce crafts, play music and express tenderness; they remind me of the love of humanity I experience when traveling.
Hearts
I was touched by the many people on my trips who showed me caring and generosity. New friends were the gifts of my journey.
For this exhibition, I experimented with letterpress prints on various textured papers, and then cut and sewed to create paper hats. Each piece tells a story about actual people I met or saw.
