About

This vertical portrait features a shirtless Black man lying down on a richly patterned vintage carpet, wearing dark leather pants with white contrast stitching. His arms are extended upwards past his head as he looks towards the camera with a relaxed expression. The scene is captured in deep low-key lighting with high-contrast shadows sculpting his physique. Directed by Liam Cushing in London, the intimate composition emphasizes texture and dramatic chiaroscuro illumination.
