Alexia Sidibe, Art Director, Paris

Description

This striking digital artwork created by Paris-based artist Alexia Sidibe features a young Black man wearing a black turtleneck against a minimalist white background. He holds a metallic gold chess piece in his outstretched hand, while multiple chess pieces appear to float or fall mid-air in the foreground. The composition employs a dynamic, slightly low-angle framing that accentuates the movement of the floating pieces. Soft, directional lighting illuminates the subject and highlights the smooth metallic textures of the chess pieces. The overall aesthetic is clean and modern, blending conceptual portraiture with digital 3D artistry.
