Portrait Juan Luis x MET Gala 2026

Description

This black and white portrait features Maluma photographed by Diego Bendezu for the Juan Luis and MET Gala project, with hair styling by Cynthia Alvarez. The subject is captured in a medium shot, resting his hands delicately against his face while looking directly toward the camera with a gentle expression. His torso is uncovered, showcasing extensive detailed tattoos on his arms, chest, and shoulder. He wears dark trousers held by a simple belt. The lighting is bright and soft, coming from a window behind him that creates high-contrast highlights along his slicked-back hair and upper body, rendered in a monochrome aesthetic.
