A colour portrait image of works installed in a gallery space with white walls and cement floors. Mounted on the wall on the left is a tall rectangular work consisting of images of stacked books with silver tape on top that creates a grid and borders the work. There are colourful fake flowers arranged in single rows following the silver tape grid with some arranged in clusters towards the top. There are colourful sticky notes and tabs affixed all over the piece as well in clusters on the wall adjacent to the piece, some with writings on them. At the bottom of the piece, sitting on the floor is an assortment of tropical fruits arranged in one large cluster with colourful paperclips outlining the shape. In the middle of the cluster, there is a mound of white items with a gold spherical object in the centre of it and a gold offerings pedestal tray on top of a light blue pedestal stand. The tray contains items with colourful packaging and wrappers with a red apple in the middle. On the right edge of the image, there is a copper wavy-edged floating panel, attached to a tall column and held up by the copper crutches which go through the panel. The column is made up of stacked books with fake flowers bordering the edgeDescription
