Description
An artistic editorial portrait of poet and musician James Massiah viewed through a layer of dark, heavily crinkled plastic or film texture. A beam of focused, warm-toned light selectively illuminates the central features of his face, including his eyes and lips, leaving the rest of the composition in deep shadow. Shot by photographer Fran Gomez de Villaboa for the Contact High editorial project, the composition features tactile textures, low-key chiaroscuro contrast, and an atmospheric, layered visual treatment.
