A dark-skinned man holds a long, thin metal object with a wooden handle in his mouth. The object runs horizontally across his face, between his teeth. His face is damp, and there appear to be teardrops. He wears a black mesh shirt with orange and white trim. He makes a peace sign with his right hand. Behind him, a patterned beige curtain hangs against a wall. The lighting is dim.
