Viviane Sassen, Photographer, London

Description

This portrait photography by Viviane Sassen features a Black man centrally framed by an array of large, vibrant pleated circular textile structures. The overlapping circular fans display bold blocks of cobalt blue, yellow, white, orange, and red-and-green checkerboard patterns, casting sharp shadows onto a pale turquoise wall behind him. The subject stands on a weathered wooden floor surface, with his head emerging from the center of the topmost blue pleated disc. The composition employs stark directional lighting and vivid primary colors to create a sculptural, graphic visual impact.
