Paola Kudacki, Photographer, New York

Description

This monochrome close-up portrait, captured in New York by photographer Paola Kudacki, focuses on a woman holding the high collar of a black knit turtleneck sweater up past her nose. Tousled, highlighted hair falls wildly across her forehead and eyes, partially obscuring her face while one direct eye gazes forward. The lighting is soft and directional against a solid grey background, emphasizing the texture of the knit fabric and the contrast of the highlights in the hair. The intimate framing creates a moody, tactile composition.
