Print
A horizontally oriented black-and-white photograph crops closely around draped fabric and a sliver of skin. Along the top edge, a smooth arm rests, its light tone contrasting with the surrounding dark cloth. A hemmed fabric slopes from our upper left, while to our right, rhythmic folds create deep, parallel shadows and bright highlights. The composition emphasizes tactile texture and the formal interplay between soft skin and woven materials.
