Roger Neve, Photographer, New York

Description

This interior portrait captures an older Black man with curly grey hair and round glasses working in a richly detailed laboratory or apothecary setting. He wears a tailored suit jacket over a vest and white shirt, leaning over a wooden workbench filled with glassware, beakers, and test tubes. In his hands, he carefully dispenses liquid from a small amber bottle using a glass dropper onto a bowl emitting gentle wisps of mist and resin fragments. The warm, moody lighting highlights the amber glow of bottles in the background shelves and creates an atmospheric, cinematic quality. The scene is shot with meticulous focus on the subject's engaged expression and the tactile textures of the glassware and organic elements.
