Turkina Faso, Photographer, London

Description

This intimate, low-angle close-up portrait features a Black woman with very short hair and a serious expression, looking directly into the camera. She wears a white high-collared garment detailed with delicate blue and green floral embroidery around the neckline. Her makeup includes defined brows, flushed cheeks, and vibrant red lipstick that serves as a central focal point. The lighting is soft and directional, creating subtle shadows and highlighting the texture of her skin. In the background, a solid, textured deep red wall contrasts sharply with the subject. The composition is vertical and tightly framed, emphasizing the intense gaze and sculptural form of the portrait.
