Description
This striking close-up portrait by photographer Arseny Jabiev features a person's face entirely covered in a thick layer of dried white clay or mud that has cracked heavily across the skin's surface. The stark contrast between the pale, textured mask and the dark, shadowy background creates a dramatic visual effect. The subject's dark eyes gaze forward steadily through the fissures in the mask, while dark hair is neatly braided and pulled back from the forehead. The lighting is direct and focused, accentuating the intricate web-like cracks and fine particulate texture of the dried treatment across the contours of the face.
