Elad Lassry — Girl (Green / Red)
Elad Lassry

Girl (Green / Red)

2011

A meticulously composed photograph by Elad Lassry presents a close-cropped portrait of a girl against a bold, color-blocked background of green and red. True to Lassry's signature practice, the work draws attention to the conventions and artifice of image-making, framing the subject within a format that recalls commercial photography and printed media. The striking contrast of the two colors flattens the pictorial space, transforming the portrait into an object as much as an image.
