The Smith Family is one of the most creative forces in the country, constantly finding ways to innovate and change the ways we think of artistry. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith did a wonderful job of raising their children to be young creatives, encouraging them to push boundaries in all areas of life. Announcing that she would be spending twenty-four hours in a glass box as part of a public exhibition at MOCA in Los Angeles, Willow Smith pulled through and did just that, keeping the audience entertained with stunts like this.

Alongside her rumoured boyfriend Tyler Cole, Willow Smith completed her mission and, in order to keep herself busy, she brought some tools to interact with during her twenty-four box stay. One of the items in the box was a clipper.

“My baby shaved her head! Again,” wrote Jada Pinkett Smith on social media, sharing a video of her daughter’s head being shaved by Cole while trapped inside the box. This is not the first time that Willow has re-started her hair journey. The singer has been clear that she does not want her hair to define her, which is surely why she was so unafraid to cut off the locs another time.

Take a look at her new style below.

Willow Smith’s excellent music may go slightly overlooked at times, but her upcoming performance art piece certainly will not. On Wednesday (Mar. 11), she will trap herself in a box for 24 hours in service of a performance art piece that provides commentary on anxiety. 

The piece is inspired by the 19-year-old’s own experiences with anxiety, but its focus is on raising mental health awareness. “This is not so that people are like, ‘Oooh!’” Smith told the Los Angeles Times. “This is for awareness. The first thing we’re going to be writing on our title wall is something along the lines of: ‘The acceptance of one’s fears is the first step toward understanding.’ So then you know this is on something real. This is for a real cause.”

The piece is also inspired by The Anxiety, the album that Smith made with her close friend Tyler Cole and which they plan to release immediately following the performance. “We were like, ‘Wouldn’t it be so interesting if we could personify this experience? Starting from being scared and feeling alone and moving to a place of acceptance and joy?” said Smith. The album was described by the LA Times as “a mix of alternative rock and punk.” 

The event will take place at the MOCA’s Geffen Contemporary on Wednesday at 9 PM. Viewers will be able to observe Smith and Cole through a glass wall at 15-minute intervals, before being ushered into a room with a livestream of the performance and various tools to cope with mental health issues.
