HERO USA Willow 2026

About

This black-and-white close-up portrait features entertainer Willow Smith captured in a striking monochrome aesthetic. The composition highlights detailed textures including micro-braided hair, skin grain, and multiple facial piercings including eyebrow rings, a septum ring, and a labret stud. Natural light softly defines the facial structure against an indistinct background. The image was photographed by Purienne as part of the Willow project for HERO USA, with makeup artistry by Kimora Mulan and manicure work by Rachel Sun.
