DIMENSIONS: 89 cm x 144 cm
Along Colombia’s Caribbean coast, headwraps are far more than a symbol of beauty. Their tradition traces back to Afro-descendant women who transformed a simple garment into a powerful expression of identity, dignity, resilience, and freedom. Every fold carries stories of strength, memory, and pride—stories of women who refused to forget who they were and where they came from.
Roots of Light pays tribute to those women who turned joy into a form of resistance and elegance into a statement of power. Her calm yet unwavering gaze reflects the wisdom of those who understand that true wealth lies not in possessions, but in the roots that ground us and the courage to remain faithful to ourselves.
The vibrant colors evoke the energy of the Caribbean, the warmth of its people, and the rich cultural heritage that has shaped Colombia for generations. This work celebrates the women of Colombia’s coast: strong, authentic, radiant, and deeply connected to their history.
Because a woman who knows her roots does not need to prove her worth—she radiates it.
