Description

This intimate photographic portrait features a Black woman lying on a vibrant, intricately patterned round tapestry outdoors in direct sunlight. She has long, textured silver-grey box braids that cascade across the frame and wears dark framed glasses. Her right hand rests across her forehead to shield her eyes from the bright light, while her left hand is gently placed on her chest. Several rings adorn her fingers, and a simple tattoo is visible on her inner right forearm. The overhead natural light casts distinct shadows across her face and garments, highlighting the rich textures of her hair and the colorful textile beneath her. Photographed by Brinson+Banks.
