Tom Jamieson, Photographer, New York

Description

This monochromatic portrait by photographer Tom Jamieson utilizes a double exposure technique to blend two subjects together. An older woman in profile appears in the foreground wearing a patterned shirt and hoop earrings. Overlaid through the exposure is an older man wearing dark-rimmed glasses and a plaid jacket. The background consists of vertical slatted panels creating a rhythmic linear pattern across the frame. The low-contrast monochrome grading emphasizes the textured, layered aesthetic of the composition.
