Frank Ockenfels 3, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This striking portrait captures musician David Bowie from behind, standing with his hands clasped behind his back. He wears an iconic red, white, and blue Union Jack coat with distinctive geometric panels, paired with tall black boots and short reddish hair. The subject is positioned directly against a dense, textured background covered in frantic, hand-scrawled black script and markings that create an intense graphic contrast. The composition is vertical, centered, and highly stylized with a raw, expressive aesthetic. The lighting is bright and even, highlighting the vibrant colors of the garment against the monochrome scrawled background.
