Close-up portrait of five bald individuals with pale, textured skin and emotional expressions stacked together in an artistic editorial composition.

Tom Johnson, Photographer, New York

About

This striking editorial portrait captured by photographer Tom Johnson features a close-up composition of five bald figures clustered tightly together. Each individual has pale, textured skin resembling clay or stone, with eyes closed or half-closed and highly expressive, emotional facial features displaying grief or anguish. The lighting is soft and directional, accentuating the contours of their brows, cheeks, and chins while casting deep shadows between the faces. White typographic elements are overlaid at the top and bottom of the frame, including the title Atmos and Afterlife. The overall tone is dramatic, sculptural, and somber.
