The Hair Museum of Avanos: Memory has its own politics that lives through the body. Hair Museum of Avanos looks at the potential of hair as a reservoir of memory. Around 30 years ago Turkish potter Chez Galip when had to bid adieu to one of his friends from Avanos, she gifted her a piece of hair. This kickstarted his journey to keep the hairs of the women who visited her. Hair became the body of remembrance. This innovative museum redefines the meaning of memory and how it plays through even the dispensable body parts.
