Mikael Schulz, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking macro portrait shot by photographer Mikael Schulz captures a tight, high-detail close-up of a human eye. The eyelid and surrounding skin are painted with vibrant, opaque blocks of colour, featuring a vertical stripe of metallic silver, a thick band of bright turquoise, and a bold stroke of yellow pigment along the side. The subject's dark brown iris is sharply focused, displaying fine textural detail and a visible circular reflection from studio lighting. The composition fills the frame entirely with skin, eyelashes, and the painterly cosmetic application.
