Hundreds of small stainless steel bowls hold grains, pulses, sweets, nuts, fried snacks, green herbs and colourful spices in mounded heaps. The bowls form a central tiered pyramid surrounded by spreading rings and sprays of yellow and purple flowers. A small wrapped sweet with a purple flower sits atop the central mound. No people are visible in the scene.
