Portrait of a man behind ribbed glass, wearing a white shirt with vertical distortion lines obscuring his face.

Rich Stapleton, Photographer, New York

About

This portrait photograph by Rich Stapleton in New York captures a man viewed through a heavily textured layer of vertical ribbed glass. The transparent fluted surface distorts the subject's features, breaking his face and white shirt into repeating vertical optical slices. Deep shadows frame the composition, creating a dark, moody atmosphere with high contrast against the illuminated highlights of the white garment. The resulting abstract visual effect emphasizes texture, light refraction, and obscured identity.
