A blue basin on the dirt, with black pigment dripping from a set of fingers.

WM-GRO-10-032

The pigment drips into the blue basin

Two blue basins sit on the dirt. Black pigment falls from a set of fingers into the nearer basin. A bent person has an arm covered in the same pigment and smudges on the legs.

The nearer basin is nearly full, and the pigment drips over its rim. The other basin, farther back, also holds black pigment. The bent person wears a dark shirt and dark shorts, and the black fingers touch the rim. The face is cut off at the top edge. Other people's legs show at the sides, with sandals. Jeans and a dark shoe show at the left. A vehicle door is behind them.
