Through a spectacular archive of original images, this book presents the “poetics” of a hairdressing artist. Orea Malià is identified by her ironic style that looks at kitsch images from our commercial imagination and revitalises them, transforming the inane colours into glowing icons of the contemporary: from holy pictures to detergents, from South American iconography to Oriental. Firmly convinced of the importance of detail in the definition of the personal image, Orea Malià interprets the profession of hairdresser as an activity based on modelling new solutions, stylistic inspirations and continually updated sources, but adapted to those wearing it, their style, their way of projecting themselves, even before their physical presence.
