Description
This striking black and white close-up portrait, photographed by Joshua Kissi in New York, captures a Black woman with her eyes closed in serene repose. She wears a massive, heavily gem-encrusted link chain necklace that rests prominently across her collarbone. Her hair is intricately braided into cornrows that frame her face and fall long behind her shoulders. The high-contrast monochromatic lighting accentuates the sharp textures of the pavé diamond links and the smooth contours of her skin. Set against a clean, minimalist white backdrop, the tight framing focuses entirely on the subject and the sculptural jewellery.
