Michael Bailey-gates, Photographer, New York

Description

This black-and-white editorial photograph by Michael Bailey-gates captures four performers posing playfully in an indoor space. Each subject wears retro-styled two-piece lingerie, stockings, high heels, and large voluminous blonde wigs. Small pieces of confetti or petals drift through the air around them, caught mid-fall. In the foreground, camera equipment and out-of-focus feet indicate a behind-the-scenes perspective during a shoot. The raw textured walls and wooden ceiling beams of the room complete the stark, atmospheric composition.
