Sandro, Photographer, Chicago

Description

This vertical portrait photograph captures a young person with short reddish-brown hair and a direct, serious gaze. The subject is wearing a light-coloured, short-sleeved button-down shirt with subtle dark polka dots and a dark necktie. Their arms are crossed defensively with hands resting on opposite shoulders, revealing a colourful tattoo on the forearm and a dark ear gauge. The lighting is moody and directional, casting gentle shadows that emphasize the subject's features and textured skin. The background consists of a distressed, mottled green and brown wall with visible signs of wear and age.
