About the Book
Black and Light is a photographic study of these two mediums. Through the art of nude photography, Christopher Maverick attempts to push the concepts of both light and shadow to their absolute limits and through them enhance the beauty of the human form.
Literally two books in one, the text is uniquely designed to be enjoyed in two ways. A study of light on one side or, flip the book over to read it as a study of shadow. Like the concepts of light and shadow themselves, a yin yang with no beginning or end, one melts into the other.
