Sam Kweskin, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This black and white photographic sequence by photographer Sam Kweskin presents a multi-panel breakdown of a man executing a dive. The composition features ten distinct vertical frames arranged in a grid, capturing the subject at successive moments of his descent through the air. The swimmer wears dark trunks, his muscular physique highlighted by harsh overhead lighting against an empty, bright sky. Faint stadium light structures are visible at the bottom of the final frames. The high-contrast monochromatic grading emphasizes the sculptural form of the body and the clean geometry of the motion sequence.
