Description
A black-and-white fashion diptych titled 'The Shape of Grief' for Vanguard Magazine, photographed by Tania Mendoza with casting direction by Numair Asmi. The left panel presents a dramatic close-up portrait of an East Asian woman with dark lipstick and freckles, her face enveloped in a diamond-patterned fishnet veil. The right panel captures a pair of sculptural high-heeled shoes resting on a tiled surface bathed in hard, dappled shadows and high-contrast geometric light.
