A boy with pigment, a green, white, and red piece on his head, and a striped stick held up.

WM-GRO-10-059

The covered piece and the striped stick

A shirtless boy stands alone against the wall. On his head is a piece covered in green, white, and red, and he raises a stick with the same stripes. Black pigment covers his face and chest.

The boy looks at the camera and smiles. The piece sits above his forehead and shines. The stick is red at the top, white in the middle, and green below, and its shadow falls on the wall. The pigment leaves skin around his eyes and mouth, and it lies in patches on his chest. He wears black shorts and dark sandals. His other hand hangs down. Cables and dirt are on the ground. It is night.
