About

This portrait by photographer James Pearson-Howes features a group of four young Black individuals posing closely together in an indoor setting in London. The subjects display relaxed and smiling expressions while wearing varied casual apparel including a yellow knit sweater, a striped beanie, a white button-down shirt with a tie, a black halter top, and a dark athletic zip-up jacket. Small art prints and a decorative mask are pinned to the plain white wall behind them. The natural lighting and unpretentious composition highlight a genuine sense of connection and youth culture.
