Neil Favila, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This monochrome photographic portrait features a young Black man with styled dreadlocks looking directly at the camera with a serious expression. He is wearing a camouflage sweatshirt featuring the Adidas trefoil logo on the lower front. Prominent layers of diamond-encrusted tennis necklaces hang around his neck, reflecting light. The background is softly out of focus, showing indistinct urban elements illuminated by bright natural light framing his silhouette. The composition is a tight portrait highlighting texture in his hair, the pattern of the garment, and the metallic brilliance of the jewelry.
