Ruven Afanador, Photographer, New York

Description

An individual stands facing away from the camera wearing an elaborate feathered headdress and textured gown. The headdress features a semi-circular arrangement of feathers, while the gown has a pattern that mimics scales or feathers. The person is positioned in front of a pale, flat landscape, giving the appearance of a body of water meeting the horizon under an overcast sky. The lighting is diffused, creating a soft and muted color palette primarily composed of earth tones. The photograph has an editorial and artistic quality.
