Suffo Moncloa, Photographer, New York

Description

This black-and-white editorial photograph by Suffo Moncloa captures a black woman with an afro hairstyle levitating in mid-air above a paved walkway outdoors. She wears a dark long-sleeved dress with ruffled layered details, light-coloured socks with dark stripes, and dark shoes. Her arms are slightly extended downward with open palms, and her expression is serious as she hovers above the tiled ground. In the background, an urban environment features a paved plaza, a traffic sign with graffiti on its post, bare tree branches, and a multi-story residential apartment building. To the right, a blurred figure in a dark coat walks past, indicating motion blur in the scene. The natural lighting and monochrome grain contribute to a documentary style with surreal overtones.
