Joaquin Laguinge, Photographer, Paris

Description

This monochrome vertical photograph by Joaquin Laguinge features an overhead close-up shot of a single crystal-embellished flat shoe placed on a rough, textured concrete surface. The shoe is heavily encrusted with sparkling rhinestones that catch stark highlights and cast a long, dramatic shadow to its left. Inside the dark interior of the shoe, the Loewe brand name is visible in capital lettering along the insole. The high-contrast lighting accentuates the gritty texture of the concrete ground and the intricate, glittering surface of the footwear. The composition is clean and focused entirely on the sculptural form and textural contrast of the object.
