Sicky Magazine Skin As Artifact 2026

Description

A dramatic low-key profile portrait from the 'Skin As Artifact' editorial for Sicky Magazine, photographed by Jose Carvajal. The subject's face is largely cast in deep shadow, creating a striking silhouette defined by selective illumination across the ear, jawline, and slicked-back wet-look hair. A sculptural gold beaded ear cuff climbs along the helix of the ear, paired with a slender metallic choker around the neck. The composition is set against a soft, warm terracotta and peach gradient backdrop that accentuates the high-contrast chiaroscuro lighting.
