Please tell us about the cultural insight that inspired the work

‘90s fashion is back in style. So is one of the most iconic hairdos from that decade, the ‘curtain’. This is true especially in Sweden, where the popularity of the 'do skyrocketed last fall, probably as a result of overgrown pandemic lockdown hairdos. So, once again, people are walking around with their bangs parted in the middle, just like David Beckham, Nick Carter and Leonardo DiCaprio did thirty years ago. Today, people like Brooklyn Beckham, Timothée Chalamet, Liam Payne of One Direction and Liam Hemsworth have been sporting the ‘do. And it just so happens that the iconic hairstyle looks a lot like another icon, one of the world’s most known logos – the McDonald’s Golden Arches.
