In this black-and-white photograph by Duda Breda, a nude male figure is captured lying on the floor, one leg bent while the other stretches out.
The directional lighting emphasizes the planes of his torso and legs, drawing attention to both the subtle musculature and the relaxed nature of his pose.
This delicate balance between repose and tension aligns with Breda’s broader exploration of heteronormative beauty standards, presenting the male body as simultaneously powerful and vulnerable.
By isolating the subject against a dark, minimal background, the image invites viewers to contemplate the complexities of performing masculinity, exposing the uneasy line between external expectations and internal truths.
