Marilyn Minter, Photographer, New York

Description

This macro portrait by photographer Marilyn Minter features an extreme close-up of a woman's face viewed through a sheet of wet, condensation-covered glass. Water droplets and vertical streaks run down the surface, distorting and softening the features behind it. The subject has her eyes closed with light-coloured eyelashes and bold pink and purple tones across her lips and cheeks. The composition is tightly cropped, focusing entirely on the textures of moisture, skin, and coloured lighting.
