Lynette Garland, Photographer, London

Description

This monochrome editorial photograph captured by London-based photographer Lynette Garland presents a striking rear-view portrait of a Black woman. Her hair is styled in intricate cornrows cascading down her back, intricately decorated with small, dark ribbon bows woven throughout. She wears a sleeveless, shimmering metallic dress with a textured surface that catches the light. The moody, low-contrast lighting emphasizes the contours of her back and shoulders against a dark, textured background. The composition focuses intimately on texture, form, and personal adornment.
