Tarek Mawad, Photographer, London

Description

This monochrome editorial photograph captured in London by Tarek Mawad features an elderly woman whose face is framed tightly within an embroidered white quilted blanket. She has a distinct vertical mark centered on her forehead and dark eyeliner defining her eyes, gazing directly into the camera with a serious expression. The lighting is soft and directional, emphasizing the intricate stitched textures of the heavy fabric wrapping her head and shoulders. The textured background is neutral and muted, keeping the focus entirely on the striking facial features and the enveloping textile.
