A large night-time light sculpture of a standing figure built from white bulbs over a bamboo scaffold frame. The figure wears a wrapped turban, has a red bindi, and is adorned with a long necklace of red beads. Its arms are folded at the chest, and it stands on a dark street with a lit billboard and streetlight beside it. The scaffold and bulbs are clearly visible; no people are visible in the frame. The figure is an illuminated effigy, not a physical person, and no a person identification is made from appearance.
