Matthieu Dortomb, Photographer, Paris

Description

This captivating portrait features a smiling Black man with his eyes closed, created through a physical paper-weaving technique. The photograph is cut into interwoven horizontal and vertical strips, creating a fragmented yet coherent image texture. He wears a vibrant patterned collared shirt featuring abstract illustrations and stripes against a pink backdrop. The entire composition is framed by a white paper border constructed from the woven tabs. Soft lighting accentuates the tactile quality of the handmade collage effect.
