Sarah Blais, Photographer, New York

Description

A striking overhead editorial portrait captured by photographer Sarah Blais features a Black woman lying on a pale grey surface, her legs drawn up toward her chest. She wears a dark, glossy textured long-sleeve top characterised by voluminous puffed shoulders and subtle metallic button details. Scattered artfully across the grey ground around her are various vintage porcelain teacups, saucers, and small plates in delicate hues, including a pale blue teacup and one filled with dark liquid. The composition employs soft, natural overhead lighting that gently highlights the subject's features and the glossy sheen of her attire. The overall mood is quiet and surreal, merging intimate portraiture with an unconventional, still-life backdrop.
