Chloe Mallett, New York

Description

This striking monochrome photograph by Chloe Mallett captures the rear view of a woman standing on a balcony with traditional louvered shutters in the background. Her blonde hair is styled in a neat braid that is fastened with a prominent, dark velvet hair bow. She wears a semi-sheer white lace dress with intricate open-work patterns, draped loosely off her shoulders. Natural light catches the contours of her back and shoulders, while the high-contrast black-and-white tonal grading emphasizes textures like the delicate lace and the soft hair. The composition is intimate and contemplative, focusing on texture and form.
