Ramona Rosales, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking monochrome image captured by photographer Ramona Rosales features a Black woman wearing a flowing white dress while bending backward in an expressive, athletic pose. The subject wears statement circular jewellery that catches the light against the fluid fabric of her gown. She is positioned in the center of a wide frame against a heavily textured grey studio backdrop with visible imperfections and grain. The lighting is soft and directional, creating subtle tonal gradients across the drapery and highlighting the sculptural lines of the pose. The overall composition balances movement and stillness within a classic black-and-white aesthetic.
