Delali Ayivi, Photographer, New York

Description

This portrait photograph by Delali Ayivi features two black women standing side by side outdoors against a two-tone pink and brown wall with a concrete ground. Both women wear intricately styled dresses made from colourful patterned African wax print fabrics. The woman on the left wears a voluminous bubble-hem skirt composed of circular rosettes and an off-the-shoulder top with beaded hair accessories. The woman on the right wears a structured dress with matching bolero-style sleeves and black loafers. The natural daylight highlights the vibrant textures of the garments and the candid expressions of the subjects.
