Create a thought-provoking portrait of a face without a mouth, set against a bold, red and black background that seems to mask their true identity, shot on the Sony Alpha a7R III paired with the FE 55mm f/1.8 ZA lens. Use a dramatic, high-contrast lighting scheme, with a bright, white light casting a sharp, geometric shadow on the subject's face, accentuating the lines and wrinkles of their skin, and conveying a sense of concealment and secrecy, as if they're hiding behind a mask of silence.
