Description
This black-and-white portrait photograph by Emily Maye captures a shirtless young man sitting on a wooden chair while another person applies hair dye with a brush. The subject has short, light hair, a mustache, and prominent tattoos including chest lettering and a forearm tattoo. He wears a delicate silver chain necklace and looks directly toward the camera with a neutral expression. A hand holding a bowl of dye is visible on the right, and the background features an outdoor setting with a brick wall and vegetation. The high-contrast monochrome grading emphasizes the textures of skin, hair, and clothing.
