Ruven Afanador, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking portrait captured by photographer Ruven Afanador presents a person viewed from behind, adorned with a magnificent, fan-shaped feather headdress that dominates the upper frame. The intricate natural headdress features a radiating arrangement of dark and light feathers that create a powerful silhouette against the sepia-toned backdrop. Below the headdress, the subject's bare back and dark braided hair are visible, along with textured garments hanging down the sides. The composition is set outdoors with a body of water and a distant treeline visible across the horizon. Typography at the bottom left reads 'HIJAS DEL AGUA', accompanied by additional credit text on the bottom right.
