Yarina and Estefanía: Embracing Heritage. For us, hair is more than strands; it symbolizes life, a legacy that has taken a lifetime to cherish. It's a precious treasure, akin to the radiant rays of the sun—an intricate link between spiritual nature and human essence. In the Andean world, our rituals and actions hold deep theoretical roots; for instance, the timing of haircuts in sync with the lunar cycle is intricately tied to the rhythms of harvests. The years dedicated to nurturing and growing our hair serve as profound lessons in patience and respect.

Sidhpur, Gujarat, India - September 16, 2015: Details of the 19th and early 20th century Dawoodi Bohra buildings or Bohrawads, as known locally in Sidhpur, Gujarat. Built by the Dawoodi Bohras, a Shia Muslim trading community from Gujarat. Today more than 100 such buildings exist. All differently colored but in depleted condition. As hardly anybody lives there. Most of the building lie locked. The buildings are laid in rows of narrow, deep structures, about three to four floors high. They have a strong European character with gabled roofs, ornate balconies, pilasters, columns and decorated doors and windows.

Located on the side of 12 Burleigh Street, the mural is just a few seconds walk from the original Young family home at 4 Burleigh Street Burwood. The Young family moved to Burwood in the 1960's from Scotland and attended both Burwood Public Primary School and Ashfield Boys High School.<br />Designed directly in consultation with the Young family, the mural is based on a photo of the band from the 1970's by photographer Phillip Morris in the early days of the band's formation. The blurred background in the design is also in reference to the original facade of 4 Burleigh Street.
