Description

This monochrome photographic portrait features an elderly woman with long, flowing grey hair captured in profile as she looks back over her shoulder towards the camera. The image exhibits visible surface textures, scratches, and grain reminiscent of analogue film or printed silver gelatin photography. The subject wears a light-coloured collared garment. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the contours of her face and the detailed texture of her hair. The background is dark and indistinct, focusing entirely on the subject's expression and posture. The work was created by Jess Ruby James in Sydney.
