Rankin, Photographer, New York

Description

This vertical portrait features a striking side profile of a Black man with short dark textured hair, captured against a clean grey background with high-contrast chiaroscuro lighting that sculpts his facial features. The subject holds his dark collar up near his chin, creating a sharp silhouette effect along his jawline and brow. Visible text in the top left corner displays the word HUNGER in bold white letters. The composition emphasizes shadows and highlights on skin textures, resulting in an intimate and dramatic editorial capture.
