Description

This close-up portrait captures a Black woman in profile with her eyes closed, featuring colorful chalk drawings across her temple and cheek in shades of blue, purple, and green. She wears a string of classic pearl necklaces and a light-colored garment with a soft collar. The lighting is gentle and warm, highlighting her textured short hair and the matte finish of the chalk art. The composition focuses intimately on her face, emphasizing the contrast between the organic skin tones and the geometric chalk lines. The photograph is shot by Viviane Black.
