Antonia Steyn, Photographer, Cape Town

Description

A striking fashion portrait features a bald Black woman standing with an assured posture against bright architectural walls with sharp light and shadow diagonals. She wears a structured, strapless black leather gown with geometric bodice cutouts and holds a heavy, distressed leather jacket in one hand, while wearing matching leather gloves. Her skin has a high-sheen finish, catching bright highlights under harsh direct sunlight. The composition is shot vertically with high contrast, emphasizing the textures of the stiff leather and the clean architectural backdrop. Photographer Antonia Steyn captures the sculptural silhouette with a high-contrast monochromatic aesthetic.
