Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, Photographer, New York

Description

A shirtless adult male is photographed in black and white, set against a stark black backdrop. The man, who has light skin, is captured from a medium angle, positioned in a bent-over pose with one arm bent and the other reaching towards the ground. He is winking at the camera. His curly hair is tousled, adding to the casual aesthetic of the image. A thin chain is visible around his neck. Evident on his arms are several tattoos. The image's monochromatic palette enhances the focus on the subject and sharp contrast, creating a timeless and striking portrait.
