Curtis Jehsta, Photographer, London

Description

This striking portrait photograph by Curtis Jehsta captures a young man featuring dark, tight curls adorned with multiple cigarettes tucked into his hair, alongside one cigarette held casually in his mouth. He wears a black knitted sweater detailed with bold, swirling pink patterns and a thick silver chain necklace. The subject gazes directly forward with a neutral expression against a vibrant solid pink background. The portrait has been creatively silhouetted with a distinct white-and-black cutout outline, enhancing its graphic quality. The lighting is bright and directional, accentuating the textures of the knitwear and the subject's facial features.
