A group of women and men sit cross-legged on the floor of a plain, sunlit kitchen cutting vegetables for a community meal. Hairnets cover their heads. Several wear white or cream clothing, while one woman in a pink saree with a green blouse sits at left. Heaps of carrots, green beans, pumpkins, gourds, cucumbers, potatoes and leafy greens lie on a burlap sack. A large steel cooking pot sits at the left edge, and a rose-coloured wall stands behind them. This is an annadan-style food preparation scene, but no a person is visible.
