Tommy Kha, Photographer, New York

Description

This monochrome photographic portrait by Tommy Kha captures an individual in New York posed against a mottled, textured background. The subject is an adult Asian man wearing a light-coloured top and two metallic rings on his fingers, with his hand raised to touch his cheek. The image features a vintage, historical aesthetic with chemical plate artifacts and dark vignette framing around the edges. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the contours of the face and the texture of the garments. The overall composition is intimate and introspective, presented in a vertical orientation with a sepia-toned monochromatic palette.
