Alice.D Magazine Fragments 2025

About

This striking monochrome editorial portrait by photographer Levon Baird, created for Alice.D Magazine as part of the Fragments project, features a close-up shot of a person's face. The subject's skin is covered in a heavy, textured application of light and dark paint, with dramatic dark eye makeup framing sideways-glancing eyes. A cluster of small white chamomile-like flowers spills from the subject's open mouth, creating a surreal and tactile visual composition. Hair styling by Sophie Roberts complements the raw, artistic aesthetic of the frame. The high-contrast black-and-white grading enhances the gritty textures and stark tonal contrasts throughout the image.
