This monochromatic photograph showcases a striking image of vulnerability and strength. The subject stands facing away, with a bare back exposed, accentuating the contours of their spine and shoulders. They wear a high-waisted sheer garment that subtly blurs the lines between clothing and skin, creating a fascinating contrast between the opaque fabric and the exposed upper body. Minimalist and unembellished, the plain backdrop enhances the focus on the human form, emphasizing texture and shadow. The use of black and white accentuates the play of light, highlighting the delicate tension between concealment and exposure. The composition invites introspection, encouraging viewers to ponder themes of identity, vulnerability, and corporeal presence. The artwork's simplicity belies its depth, offering a timeless exploration of the human condition.

Presentation

Ricky Cohete was born in a coastal city in Ecuador, but mainly, grew up in Miami. Florida's light was what drew him in to explore photography. The harsh lights and shadows were easy to encounter in this warm weather. The crisp and refined effect of this type of lighting conditions became a necessity to avoid studio settings. Self-taught; while photographing the ballet dancers in the city of Miami he started dedicating more time to the male form. 

Working with them outside of their secure space (rehearsal studio) and bringing them outside, on the sand or water, creating a dynamic that kept birthing new compositions. Inspired by the mythology in tarot culture and astrology he has incorporated certain of those elements throughout his oeuvre.

Lately, he has self-published a photography book that included: short poems and sketches titled “Blanco".
