Coty Tarr, Photographer, New York

Description

This monochrome image captured by photographer and director Coty Tarr features two black men with long dreadlocks posing in athletic wear outdoors. The foreground subject wears a dark zip-up athletic jacket with white shoulder stripes while holding his fists up in a fighting stance. The secondary figure stands slightly behind him in profile wearing a lighter jacket and sweatpants. They are positioned on a bridge with metal railings and a wire-mesh fence framing the background, through which an urban waterfront skyline is visible under daylight. The composition utilizes natural lighting and high-contrast black and white grading to emphasize texture, movement, and form.
