Dan Tobin Smith, Photographer, New York

About

This monochrome image features a sculptural installation by photographer Dan Tobin Smith, capturing numerous black scissors suspended by fine threads within a white architectural corner. The scissors are arranged in a dynamic, sweeping trail that snakes from the vertical wall down across the horizontal floor surface. Dramatic directional lighting from above casts crisp shadows and linear highlights across the white planes. The composition employs a high-contrast black-and-white palette, emphasizing geometric forms, precise alignment, and negative space.
