About

This intimate close-up photograph captures the back and shoulders of a person with glistening skin and wet hair clinging to their neck. Directional lighting highlights the water droplets and glistening texture of the skin against a deep, dark background. The composition focuses narrowly on the upper back, creating a striking sense of tactility and form. The low-key lighting enhances the dramatic contrasts across the skin's surface. This piece was captured in Melbourne by photographer and videographer Bryan Tang.
