Sylve Colless, Photographer, Sydney

About

This black and white portrait photograph by Sylve Colless captures a close-up of a smiling woman with slicked-back, wet-look hair. She gently rests her hand across the side of her face, partially obscuring her features while highlighting prominent sculptural silver rings on her fingers and matching hoop earrings. Dappled natural lighting casts soft shadows across her skin and the plain textured background. The monochromatic grading enhances the high-contrast textures of her skin, hair, and metallic accessories.
