Henna on their heads with cancer

Since ancient times in Asia Henna Body had sacred significance. A group of artists, volunteers from Canada decided to use art direction for the benefit of the people. Under the direction of Francis Darwin girls draw patterns on the minds of women who bald after aggressive chemotherapy. Project photos and videos posted on the site hennaheals.ca.














Traditional female patterns and lines that "speak" that will soon come to a cure - it's not just henna drawings, it is actually a kind of magic, women's involvement in the culture of their body decoration.

For patients with female patterns, which are applied on the body represent the experience healing. And not even a body, and soul.












These women begin anew as if conscious of itself. In fact, after their women's hair loss and self-esteem drops dramatically. They were unpleasant to look at myself in the mirror. Now, many people say that they feel more beautiful than ever was. They see themselves as beautiful, feminine. And even women of other cultures.
