Keate, Photographer, New York

Description

This macro photograph by Keate presents an abstract arrangement of cosmetic textures in shades of purple, violet, and pink. Vertical bands display contrasting finishes, ranging from smooth glossy liquid cosmetics to powdery crushed eyeshadow fragments. Deep shadows and sharp highlights emphasize the varied tactile properties of each cosmetic strip. The composition is tightly cropped, focusing entirely on the rich colour saturation and granular detail of the makeup.
