Daniel Obasi, Photographer, Lagos

Description

This striking vertical portrait features a black man posing against a textured orange-red backdrop, captured by photographer Daniel Obasi. The model wears a loose short-sleeved top with warm orange and yellow tie-dye patterns, paired with dark blue trousers featuring repeating patterned markings in yellow. Suspended dynamically overhead is a large, flowing piece of indigo-dyed patterned fabric that creates an architectural sculptural form framing the subject. The lighting is soft and warm, highlighting the rich textures of the garments and the earthy backdrop. He wears light-coloured flat shoes, completing the artistic styling.
