An adult female is seated on a low wooden stool, actively stirring a large pot of food with a long wooden spoon over a lit charcoal stove on a dusty, uneven dirt ground in Barakin Lerawi, Nigeria. She wears a yellow t-shirt, a patterned skirt or wrapper, and a green and yellow checkered head covering, looking directly towards the viewer. Steam rises from the pot she is stirring. To her left, another pot sits on a separate, unlit stove, with a red and blue plastic colander resting inside a green plastic bowl on top. A black basin containing leafy green vegetables and a green plastic colander is positioned on the ground to her right. Behind her, against a rough concrete wall, blue and yellow plastic crates, some marked "STAR," are stacked, along with some red crates. A corrugated metal shack with an open window or serving hatch dominates the left side of the scene. Posters with text such as "UPDATE!" are visible on a wall in the background. The scene is illuminated by strong daylight, casting defined shadows on the corrugated metal. Debris, including plastic remnants and ash, is scattered across the dirt ground.
