Alex Black, Paris

Description

This striking vertical portrait captures a Black woman in profile wearing a fitted royal blue knit balaclava that frames her face. The subject is dramatically lit with soft highlights catching her cheekbone, nose, and lips against a dark shadow contour. The background features an out-of-focus atmospheric gradient shifting between muted blue and grey tones. The composition highlights the rich texture of the knit headwear and the clean sculptural lines of the subject's profile.
