Gregory Harris, Photographer, New York

About

This striking monochrome editorial portrait by photographer Gregory Harris captures a Black man in profile with his eyes closed and hands held together in prayer. He wears a dark jacket, a diamond-encrusted ring on his finger, and a sparkling stud earring. His hair is styled in neat braids. Positioned on the right side of the frame is a smaller inset colour photograph depicting a person riding a bicycle outdoors. The composition plays with scale and framing, combining a tight, textured monochromatic studio portrait with a dynamic action inset.
