New Mexico Possibly 1971 - 1983

"New Mexico" is a black and white photograph by American photographer Ray K. Metzker, taken sometime between 1971 and 1983. It features the long shadows of three figures cast on a wall and the floor of what appears to be an interior space. The figures are silhouetted, emphasizing their forms and obscuring their features, which aligns with Metzker's signature style of emphasizing light, shadow, and geometric composition. The image highlights Metzker's interest in exploring the interplay of light and shadow, creating a sense of mystery and intrigue. The photograph exemplifies Metzker's signature "street photography" style, capturing everyday moments with a focus on the interplay of light and form.
