Marilyn Minter, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking macro photograph by Marilyn Minter focuses tightly on a pair of glossy lips viewed through a glass surface. Water droplets and vertical streaks texture the transparent barrier, diffusing the light into vibrant streaks of pink and blue. The composition creates a tactile, wet effect that enhances the intense gloss and sheen of the lipstick. High-contrast lighting highlights the glistening wetness of the surface and the rich textures of the lips.
