Two men sit barefoot on bare ground working on a metal sculpture. The man on the left wears a white shirt and light blue jeans and uses a chisel-like tool on the metal. The man on the right wears a teal-grey shirt, a mustard-yellow dhoti with yellow border, and a red thread on his wrist, holding a hammer. Behind them sit sacks, copper-coloured pots and other tools on the dusty ground. No deity form is clearly identifiable from this view.

A man in a yellow and white striped shirt and a checked lungi sits cross-legged on a dirt floor, hammering a copper-coloured metal dish or bowl with a wooden-handled tool. The dish has a fluted, lotus-like rim and rests on dark ground beside a second copper piece. A red pencil lies nearby, along with a small booklet, and a wristwatch is visible on his hand. This appears to be metal casting and finishing work at a workshop setting. No a person candidate is visible in the scene.

On the left, a man in a red-and-white checked shirt and blue checked lungi sits cross-legged, holding a small yellow object over a clay furnace built from bricks. In the centre, a bare-chested man in a grey-blue shirt and red cloth tends a flame and a rough wooden or metal workpiece on a low metal bench. On the right, a man in a striped purple-and-white shirt and blue lungi works at a metal table, shaping small metal figures laid out in a row, with a small cup, hammer and cloth nearby. Tools, a brick fire setup and a metal pot sit on the ground.

Large white stone or plaster blocks and a pale curved mould edge lie in the background on red earth.

Two young men work on a stone carving in a cramped workshop with a tiled wall and a turquoise cabinet behind them. The man on the right, shirtless and wearing a blue checked lungi, holds a hammer and chisel against a white stone block resting on a wooden board. The man on the left, in a blue sleeveless top and orange-peach dhoti with a red wrist thread, leans forward bent over the same work with a small tool. Chisels lie scattered on the floor and cloth sacks are piled behind them.
