In profile, with the machete raised
In profile, the man bends one knee and raises the machete. The rattle stays near his face. The headdress, with red feathers, is seen from the side. Black pigment covers his torso and his legs.
The blade rises on a diagonal, and the hand that holds it sits at the left of the frame. The other hand closes the rattle near his face. The green and black piece hangs between his legs, and a long piece runs from the waist almost to the ankle. He wears brown sandals. The background is the concrete and the dark sky. No one else is there.
