An elevated view of Porto Alegre, Brazil, is presented through a tightly-meshed, light-colored safety net. The grid of the net dominates the immediate foreground. In the lower-center, a human hand, appearing juvenile, with extended fingers, presses lightly against the net. A dark blue sleeve covers the forearm. Beyond the net, a dense urban landscape unfolds under a partly cloudy sky. Multi-story residential and commercial buildings of various heights and predominantly light hues populate the midground, interspersed with green foliage. The distant horizon reveals a body of water, consistent with the Guaíba. The scene is illuminated by natural daylight.
