Mary Ellen Matthews, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

Captured by photographer Mary Ellen Matthews, this surreal underwater portrait features a man in his 40s wearing a blue denim shirt and jeans, casually seated on a wooden chair with his boots propped up on a desk. A vintage typewriter sits on the desk while loose papers, documents, and a desk lamp float upward in the water column around him. The man has a calm, direct expression while reaching toward the surface. The scene is immersed in a cool blue monochromatic tone, creating a dreamlike and cinematic atmosphere.
