He wears a rust-red wrap, a leopard-print waist cloth, a long rudraksha mala with a matching bracelet, and has dreadlocked hair with white paint on his upper arm. He stands with hands raised in a gesture, facing a small purple-clad deity murti seated beside an oil lamp. Behind him hang red fabric, banana leaves and bamboo scaffolding in an unfinished interior.
