Jay Kolsch, Photographer, New York

Description

This stark monochrome photographic portrait by Jay Kolsch captures a Black man crouching low against a clean white seamless studio background in New York. The subject wears a fitted white tank top, dark trousers, and dark footwear, with one hand resting forward on the floor while the other hand touches his head. High-contrast lighting accentuates the sculptural lines of the pose and the textures of the clothing against the minimalist backdrop.
