Katsu Naito, Photographer, London

Description

A moody black and white photographic portrait captures a black man in profile as he plays an upright piano indoors in London. The subject, a man in his 30s with short hair and a beard, is seated with hands poised on the keyboard while sheet music rests on the music stand. The lighting creates strong contrast with deep shadows across the interior setting, highlighting the tactile wood grain of the piano and the expressive focus of the musician. The composition emphasizes quiet concentration and intimacy within the space. Photographed by Katsu Naito.
