Damon Baker, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking monochrome portrait by photographer Damon Baker captures a close-up of a young Black man with prominent vitiligo pigmentation. The subject wears an intricate headpiece constructed from metallic chains, sparkling rhinestone elements, and open zippers framing his hair. He is dressed in a light-coloured textured jacket and stares directly into the camera with a neutral expression. Bold magazine typography elements overlay the top and bottom of the frame, contributing to an editorial publication style. The high-contrast black and white grading emphasises texture and skin patterns.
