Sarah Pardini, Photographer, New York

About

This striking portrait photograph by Sarah Pardini features a close-up composition of a woman with vibrant, multicolored hair streaked with yellow, blue, and white tones. Her face is dramatically altered by heavy, chaotic black marker scribbles that heavily obscure her eye area and mouth, creating a stark contrast against her skin and painted lips. The lighting is direct, highlighting the mixed-media effect of the dark ink overlays on top of the photographic portrait print. The composition focuses intimately on the subject's face, blending photography with raw graphic marking.
