Sami Drasin, Photographer, Los Angeles

About

This striking diptych portrait by photographer Sami Drasin captures a woman with avant-garde styling and dramatic spiked hair. In the black-and-white panel on the left, she is crouched low with dark eye makeup, looking directly at the camera while sticking out her tongue. The right-hand panel shows her in vibrant pink hair, holding a red popsicle to her mouth with a hand over her lips, wearing a red patterned top. The clean white background emphasizes the sculptural silhouette of the hairstyle and the raw, expressive energy of the subject.
