Giampaolo Sgura, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking black and white portrait captured in New York by photographer Giampaolo Sgura presents a close-up composition of a woman with her eyes tightly closed and face scrunched in an expression of playful amusement. She pulls the high collar of her fitted turtleneck garment up over her mouth, biting gently on the fabric with her visible teeth. Her straight dark hair features blunt bangs across the forehead and frames the sides of her face. The lighting is direct and high contrast, casting soft shadows against a neutral backdrop and highlighting the tactile texture of the knitted fabric.
