The scene, set in Onitsha, Nigeria, depicts an outdoor area dominated by accumulated materials. A male individual, with short dark hair, is positioned in the mid-ground with his back to the viewer. He wears a black short-sleeved t-shirt and brown flip-flops. A transparent plastic sheet is tied around his waist, functioning as a makeshift lower garment. The ground is composed of reddish-brown earth, uneven and heavily littered with flattened plastic pieces, paper scraps, and other debris. A crumpled, light brown plastic bag lies prominently in the foreground. Surrounding the individual and extending into the background are numerous large, densely packed bags. These include tan burlap sacks, white woven polypropylene bags (one clearly displays "KORAMA LINEAR" in red text), and large black plastic garbage bags. A distinct green and black striped bag is situated directly in front of the individual. To the right of the individual, two dark-colored plastic barrels or large buckets stand upright. Adjacent to these is a lighter-colored bucket, possibly metal, containing a visible green residue inside. The background features a rough, light-colored concrete or stucco wall. Attached to this wall are sections of piping and a horizontal metal or wooden rod. A dark grey tarp is draped over a structure in the upper left, and a lighter-colored fabric sheet hangs from the wall further to the right.
