Group of six people in work aprons standing in a line in front of a metal roller shutter with graffiti

Christopher Simpson, Photographer, New York

About

A group portrait of seven individuals standing in a row against a weathered metal roller shutter door covered in colorful spray-painted graffiti. Six of the people wear matching grey shirts and dark charcoal aprons, creating a unified uniform look suggestive of a restaurant or hospitality team. One person on the far right stands out in a plain black jumpsuit and glasses. The subjects adopt casual, relaxed poses, leaning against the shutter and looking in different directions. The lighting is bright and even, highlighting the textured surfaces of the concrete pavement, metal door, and garments.
