Monika Lis, New York

Description

This striking portrait captured by Monika Lis in New York features a Black woman positioned centrally against a minimal, neutral background. Her face is mostly hidden beneath an extraordinarily large and voluminous afro hairstyle that extends high above her head with a rich, dense texture. Only her lower face, including glossy lips and part of her chin, is visible below the cascading curls. The lighting is soft and even, accentuating the sculptural quality of the hair and the smooth contrast of her skin.
