This image was created as part of Antonio Johnson’s You Next project, which took the artist across the United States to capture the communities within black barber shops and explore the ways they operate as sites for identity formation and wellness work. Shot between June 2018 and June 2019, You Next was Johnson’s seminal work. The photos inspired his first book, also titled You Next.
