Out of interest, why do you want to do this in Groovy? I believe using normal HTTP Request sampler would be much easier, moreover you will be able to even record the request(s) using HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, this way you will get more metrics and won't need to handle the request and response.

If you still want to do this in Groovy I believe the best option would be calling relevant Apache HttpComponents functions, example code:

import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpPost
import org.apache.http.entity.ContentType
import org.apache.http.entity.mime.HttpMultipartMode
import org.apache.http.entity.mime.MultipartEntityBuilder
import org.apache.http.impl.client.HttpClientBuilder

def imageFileName = "/path/to/your/image.png"

def post = new HttpPost("http://your-server");
def file = new File(imageFileName);
def builder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
builder.setMode(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
builder.addBinaryBody("file", file, ContentType.DEFAULT_BINARY, imageFileName);
def entity = builder.build();
post.setEntity(entity);
def response = HttpClientBuilder.create().build().execute(post)

//do what you need with the response here
