To celebrate the release of the short we hosted a sold out experience at the Curzon where we transformed the cinema into a gallery. Our holographic artwork of Black Mens Hair took film beyond the screen.
We converted London's Curzon Hoxton into an Art Gallery for the launch night, partnering with Minute Shorts to showcase the motion portraits within the space - printing them portraits as immersive holographic lenticular artworks.
The project then premiered on the WETRANSFER.COM homepage globally
As a part of this partnership a detailed breakdown of the project was featured on the WEPRESENT platform
To increase the reach and visibility of the project, we recreated the Black Barbershop hairchart and created a motion poster on 35MM film featuring influencers such as Tega Williams & Taser Black showing the craft and power of Black Male haircuts in 2024
