Abstract
Ancestry is a representation of being torn between wisdom and desire, where her youth screams for her to be hip, urban, and carefree while her inheritance keeps her grounded and resilient. Her vision has been replaced by the strength of her ancestors, and she is hypnotized by their ancient tongues guiding her through her wrapped hair. This highlights the role heritage, unconsciously, plays in our everyday lives. The uniqueness of the fabriced background and her attire unveils the beauty found within cultural inheritance on all scales. Her inherited wisdom helps her prevail, and make sure she never fails.
