Matthias Clamer, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This portrait photograph by Matthias Clamer captures two figures standing in a dirt-floor arena at night under harsh overhead stadium lighting. In the foreground, a woman wearing an elaborate white tiered gown with a blue vest stands beside a clown in a black and white ruffled costume with facial makeup. Behind them stands a horse painted with white body markings and an orange-dyed mane. The dark, expansive backdrop reveals tiered empty seating benches and structural beams of a large arena, illuminated by bright spotlights.
