Description

A close-up studio portrait captured by photographer Jose Carvajal for Sicky Magazine's project 'Skin As Artifact'. The subject features slicked-back, wet-look hair combed tightly away from the face and wears a minimalist silver wire choker necklace along with multiple ear cuffs. High-contrast, top-down low-key lighting casts heavy cinematic shadows across the eyes and brow bone, emphasizing facial contours and bare collarbones against an absolute black background in a warm monochrome tone.
