The beauty within Congo

Within this project I am going to showcase the power of what was considered as beauty back in Congo and that will be done through the patterns, hairstyles and Sculptures, these three are a big topic for showcasing beauty in the Congolese Culture.

I looked up what is classed as empowerment within the Congolese culture and the two main things that popped up where the colours patterns and the crazy hairstyle.

The form of hairstyle bringing it into fashion, the shapes and height of the hairstyle can be formed into an outline shape of a skirt or dress using the careful details and patterns on the hair, to recreate a form of design of my own inspired by the hair. 

Patterns: Congolese woman love to convey Beauty through the traditional clothing in Congo which we call "Liputa" this is a way of representing the wisdom of tribe. These patterns are also representing an act of a recording events and daily activities of the different tribes in Congo.

Hairstyles:

Hairstyles are another form of beauty this is within the whole of Africa, used as a form of identity and expression. But with the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Congolese woman use hair to portray their financial status material background, social status, and what tribe they represented during back in the 15th century In Congo. 

The Art of skull Elongation by the Mangbetu Tribe In Congo:

There is a saying that is said in Congo which is "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder" which is a big thing, deformity of the skull/head is considered a symbol of great beauty, social standing in the society by the tribe Mangbetu people in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The Mangbetu people/Tribe have a very distinctive physical appearance that is massively highlighted by their elongated heads. Also, this is a serious physical feature of deformity that the Mangbetu people in Congo showcase it as a symbol of beauty, prestige and power.

Mark making pt2 Congo Tribal markings

I haven't really noticed why the statues have such distinctive markings to the face, and I done some deep diving research on why and I found out that the statues that is worship and praised in Congo are a symbol of pride and beauty, and the markings are a symbol of that. So, the tribes in Congo they would mirror these beautiful markings and onto themselves. This distinctive scarification done within Congo consists of a number of lines along the sides of the face and also along the forehead. Elaborating and attract I've patterns/designs would be worked into the skin. This act demonstrates that a person becomes a complete adult when they are properly inscribed with the appropriate scars. 

There is also a saying in Congo with the tribes and the scars which is that people make these types of scars to protect young children from harm; when a woman has had many children who have died these scars is then given to the next child so that death will not be attracted to them. 

With my mark makings I wanted to take in these markings the tribes do on themselves and combine it with the details on the Liputa.This one I would say is my favourite, I wanted to apply different shading to make the markings bold to actually get the perfect detail that I took from the Liputa and the Statues.
