The scene is located outdoors in Burwood, Australia, under clear daylight conditions. In the foreground, two parallel, weathered concrete troughs are partially filled with sand. A child, appearing approximately 8-12 years old, with dark skin, is centrally positioned. The child wears a long-sleeved, full-body garment patterned with pink, black, and green designs. Their hands grip the top of a low, crumbling concrete block wall situated directly behind the troughs. The child's left leg is extended forward, with the foot, clad in a blue slide-sandal, pressed against the lower concrete trough. The right leg is bent, with the right foot behind the child. The child's head is turned slightly to the right, mouth slightly open, and eyes directed towards the right side of the frame. In the far left background, a second individual is partially visible, appearing to be seated or reclining on a concrete block structure; they wear blue trousers. The immediate background on the right features a partially constructed or dilapidated concrete building with unpainted, rough-textured walls and a prominent concrete support column. A window opening with horizontal metal bars is visible on this structure. Further back on the left, another building with a corrugated metal roof and lighter-colored walls is visible, topped by a section of barbed wire fencing. The ground throughout the scene appears dry and sandy. Wooden planks and debris are also present between the background structures.
