Doug Menuez, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking black and white photographic composition by Doug Menuez focuses closely on the lower bodies and hands of three individuals. The subjects are seated together, wearing detailed fishnet stockings and strappy heeled sandals. Their hands rest intimately on thighs and knees, creating a textured interplay of skin and mesh fabric. Bold vertical typography reading "AMERICANA" and the photographer's name runs along the left margin of the frame. The high-contrast monochromatic grading emphasizes the intricate patterns of the hosiery and the grain of the print.
