Description

This striking black and white portrait features a Black man with short textured hair gazing directly at the camera with a serious expression. He is wearing a dark, structured jacket with a prominent high collar, silver zippers, metallic grommets, and strap hardware. The composition is presented with a textured, collaged aesthetic featuring distressed borders and marks across the frame. The lighting creates high-contrast tonal variations across his face and attire, emphasizing the tactile qualities of the clothing materials. Matt Jones directed this piece.
