Within the multi-colored, image-packed print there are three emotional, realistic, male faces surrounding a center that consists largely of wild, indigenous images. Throughout, there are small, subtle faces which seem real enough to be drawn from or as photographs. Two of the largest center images are of figures--one green, standing upright and the other red, bent forward holding a face or a mask.
