Ruven Afanador, Photographer, New York

Description

This monochrome portrait photograph by Ruven Afanador features a person captured in profile against a plain dark background. The subject wears a fitted black turtleneck bodysuit with distinct, voluminous puff shoulders and ribbed knit sleeves. Their dark, shoulder-length hair falls in soft waves, and they gaze directly toward the camera with a composed expression. The lighting is low-key and directional, emphasizing the sculptural silhouette of the garments and the soft texture of the fabric. The overall composition highlights form and shadow in a stark, studio setting.
