Pía Riverola, Director, Paris

Description

This intimate photographic portrait directed by Pia Riverola captures the rear view of a Black person with dark dreadlocks as they wash their shoulders. Rich, soapy lather and delicate bubbles trace across the warm skin of the upper back under dramatic, low-key lighting. The deep shadows and warm highlights accentuate the natural texture of the skin and hair, creating an atmospheric and tactile composition set in Paris.
