Michal Chelbin, New York

Description

This photographic portrait by Michal Chelbin features a young blonde woman and a young man standing side by side and holding hands. The woman wears a white patterned tank top, a bright pink miniskirt, and heeled sandals, holding a light-colored handbag in her right hand. The man wears a dark pinstriped suit jacket and matching trousers over a white button-down shirt with black dress shoes. They stand against a colorful, weathered mosaic tile wall made of irregular ceramic fragments in shades of white, turquoise, and grey. The lighting is direct and even, capturing a somber, direct gaze from both subjects in a documentary style.
