A photograph of a single performer standing before a large curved backdrop of metallic, embossed panels lit in green and orange-red tones. He has long, wild dark hair swept back and a red bindi on his forehead, with a moustache and an ear ornament. He wears a leopard-print sleeveless garment and a layered necklace of beads and bells, with a beaded bracelet on his raised arm. Warm light glows around the arch behind him, and he appears to be smiling mid-movement.
