Sebastian international artist, Omar Antonio, made his Canadian debut at the 35th annual Contessa Awards with a spectacular presentation on behalf of the Wella Company. The presentation, titled Si’lat, was inspired by the desert, witches and strength of powerful women. Aiming to infuse Cirque du Soleil-style elements, the presentation took the audience through a journey of the Si’lat (a shapeshifting spirit) as she transforms from one woman to multiple, and showcased Antonio’s one-of-a-kind headpieces and wardrobe, all of which were handmade entirely out of hair! This mind-blowing presentation inspires our industry to rethink the art of storytelling and encourages them to bring their wildest avant-garde dreams to life.
