Ashleigh Carpenter, Make-up Artist, Sydney

Description

In a black and white medium shot, an Asian woman is shown in a knitted crop top and high-waisted shorts. She stands in what appears to be a dance studio with her arms raised above her head. The woman has long dark hair pulled back, drawing attention to her profile as she faces left with her eyes closed. Her knitwear appears to be a speckled mix of light and dark tones, offering textural contrast to the smooth white backdrop. A ballet barre runs horizontally in the background. The image has a stark, minimalist aesthetic, focusing attention on the woman's posture and the texture of her clothing.
