Located at the newly developed Jewel City in Johannesburg, this mural celebrates the women who make a living braiding hair in the city centre.
These street-side entrepreneurs have created a vibrant informal economy through their craft. The artwork depicts women braiding each other’s hair, a moment that captures the skill, intimacy, and community at the heart of their work. It’s a tribute to often-overlooked artisans who shape the aesthetic and economic landscape of Johannesburg’s streets.
