Alex Black, Paris

Description

This conceptual portrait photograph by director Alex Black utilizes in-camera layering to create a complex visual composition. In the extreme foreground, a dark-skinned subject's face is seen in sharp profile. A middle layer displays a softly blurred face, creating depth. In the background plane, a white woman is seated wearing a pale yellow strapless garment and a prominent white sheer veil tied with a large bow on top of her head. The lighting is soft and neutral, casting gentle shadows across the neutral studio backdrop. The multiple exposure effect blurs the boundaries between the subjects, generating a contemplative mood.
