Vice Akira Kurosawa X Suntory Boss Coffee 2023

Description

This editorial portrait by photographer Seiya Taguchi for Vice captures a man with long dark hair and facial hair standing amongst hanging garments enclosed in plastic dry-cleaning bags. The composition utilizes a narrow depth of field, framing the subject between translucent, out-of-focus clothing covers with vertical streaks of red and blue. The ambient lighting creates soft highlights on his face and hair, contributing to a candid, documentary-style aesthetic. The muted color palette and film-like grain emphasize the intimate, behind-the-scenes atmosphere of the scene.
