Piotr Kubiak,

Description

This monochrome diptych presents two distinct yet connected black and white frames against a dark backdrop. The left panel isolates a man's muscular arms and veined hands gripping a round dark object from above. The right panel features a seated shirtless man in profile, illuminated by a diagonal beam of hard light that carves out his form against deep shadows. The stark contrast and high-contrast tonal range emphasize physical texture and structural anatomy throughout the composition. Model Piotr Kubiak is captured in this striking series for Behind the Blinds project DUSK.
