Koto Bolofo, New York

Description

This striking monochrome portrait features a model captured in a tight head-and-shoulders composition. The subject wears an oversized, textured dark furry hat that frames the face, along with a high-collar ribbed top detailed with vertical striped straps. Linear shadows or light patterns cast across the bridge of the nose and eyes create a dramatic, graphic contrast against the skin. The neck and upper chest are heavily adorned with shimmering glitter particles that reflect the light. The background is softly out of focus under bright daylight conditions, emphasizing the sharp textures of the hat, clothing, and glitter.
