Erik Carter, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking monochrome portrait features a bald Black woman with her eyes closed, striking a dynamic pose with her hand raised to her head. She is wearing an oversized double-breasted trench coat with wide lapels and large dark buttons, styled off one shoulder. The lighting is dramatic and moody, creating strong contrasts and deep shadows against a dark gradient background. Fine jewelry, including a necklace and rings, catches the light. The photograph was captured by photographer Erik Carter in New York.
