Nature’s Salon 

This piece was created for the 2025 @clecrownconvention at @mocacleveland , a gathering that celebrates the beauty, power, and freedom of natural hair while advocating for equity and inclusion through the Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair (CROWN) Act. 
 
In this vibrant work, Williams, a Cleveland-based, globally acclaimed visual artist known for blending portraiture with cultural symbolism, honors the deep connection between nature, identity, and self-expression. 

The piece depicts two figures in profile, their intertwined silhouettes crowned with an expansive canopy of natural hair filled with everyday objects and symbols that speak to Black culture, beauty, and resilience. Against a radiant background, Nature’s Salon invites viewers to reflect on how our roots, both literal and cultural, serve as a source of strength, creativity, and growth.

guess we’re all going to have to wait and find out!
