Description
For this feature in Self Magazine, photographer Molly Matalon documents the athleticism and technical precision of Olympic figure skater Maia Shibutani. The editorial series captures Shibutani both in solo performance and alongside her skating partner, Alex Shibutani, within an indoor rink environment. Techniques such as analogue film and hard light highlight the textures of the performance attire and the expansive, industrial architecture of the arena. Hair styling by Ian James and makeup by Jenna Anton provide a polished aesthetic that complements the dynamic movement of the ice dance sequences.
