A performer on a stage seen from behind, dressed as a Shiva-style figure. He wears a rust-red dhoti with a gold-bordered sash, leopard-print cloth, and rudraksha bracelets, armlets and anklets. Very long dark dreadlocks fall down his back, decorated with rudraksha beads at the crown. He holds a tall silver trident with a leopard-print cloth tied to the shaft and a small drum-like damaru attached near the prongs. Behind him stands a glowing red-orange flame-like light against a dark starry backdrop with pink and purple sweeping light bands. The setting appears to be a demonstration stage performance.
