An adult female is depicted performing an outdoor cooking activity in Kafanchan A, Nigeria. She is seated on reddish-brown earth, wearing a white headwrap, a multicolored patterned blouse, and a similarly patterned wrapper skirt. Her right hand manipulates a large, light-colored granular substance within a dark, large, circular metal pot. This pot rests on a rudimentary outdoor stove structure constructed from dark earth, beneath which burning wood logs are visible, generating fire and ash. To the left of the cooking apparatus, a light blue plastic bucket contains more of the granular substance. Further left, on the ground, are several peeled white root-like objects and lighter, irregular lumps, possibly processed food items. The immediate environment includes a large tree trunk partially visible to the right. The background features a dense field of tall green plants, consistent with maize (corn) cultivation.
