Photograph of a man standing barefoot on a stage lit by bright green spotlights, holding a tall silver trident with a leopard-print cloth wrapped on its shaft. He wears a leopard-print blouse, a rust-orange draped cloth around his waist and legs, arm bands and bangles, and his long dark hair is swept back with a decorative ornament. Behind him is a backdrop of illuminated panels, and rows of ornate brass lamps line the stage edge.
