Santiago Sierra Soler, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking monochrome photograph by Santiago Sierra Soler captures a figure from behind standing on a paved overlook against a rolling mountain valley backdrop. The subject wears a dark uniform-style suit, a cape that billows slightly to the side, and a remarkably tall, ornate structural headdress decorated with fringe and floral elements. A ribbon of small attached objects trails outward from one hand in mid-air. The entire scene is rendered in high-contrast black and white tones with an overcast sky hanging above the distant hills.
