Benjamin Vnuk, Photographer, New York

Description

This close-up portrait photograph by Benjamin Vnuk captures the face of a Black woman adorned with striking, glossy metallic blue and green makeup and deep red lips. The heavy gloss finish on the skin creates intense highlights and dark reflections across her features. The tight framing highlights the texture of the makeup and skin. The lighting is direct and creates sharp specular reflections on her wet-look skin surface.
