Beautiful and realistic leaves created out of human hair by Jenine Shereos.
Intricate leaf veins were recreated by stitching, wrapping, and knotting together strands of hair. Complex and extremely detailed network of lines mimics the organic patterns that are typically found only in nature.

Beautifull! You have to have some extra time…
In the past century (before radio and tv) people used to make a lot of art out of hair, just for a past time.

A little weird but a very cool idea. Too bad my hair is so dark it wouldn’t work for such a project.

brilliant work!
The idea is not new, though.
Hairdresser have been doing things like that very often in 17th / 18th century they were creating pieces out of human hair which allowed remembering the dead.
For example bracelets, brooches etc.
You can see some of that stuff in the museum for sepulchral culture in Kassel, Germany.

This would be a great gift for those that wish to have a memento or legacy of someone they knew that was dear to them. Using their hair as a piece of art. (perhaps in the future they can use it to clone the person again!!).

This is creepy and gross, but at the same time its been around forever, this would be amazing to have as a memento of a loved one who has passed on
