A shirtless boy against a wall, with pigment in strokes and his arms held away from his body.

WM-GRO-10-042

Arms held apart against the wall

A shirtless boy stands against the wall, with his arms held a little away from his body. Black pigment lies on his face, chest, arms, and legs, in strokes. He wears black shorts and sandals.

The wall is light above and warmer below. The pigment does not cover the whole chest: it leaves strips of skin. It runs down his arms and into the sandals. The boy looks toward the camera. Boards and a cable lie on the dirt below. A frame shows on the left, and a foot shows on the right. No other whole person is in the frame.
