Creative Access Description

Black and white landscape oriented image of a Payómkawichum, Ipai and Mexican man wearing black boots, jeans and a black t shirt with white lettering that reads 'Fuck you you fucking fuck' in block capital letters. On his head he wears a headpiece with several feathers sticking up and hanging from a central headband. He stands, leaning slightly forward on his toes, with his arms at his sides. Behind him is a blank screen. The stage is empty but for a folding table with a microphone and two bottles of water and an overhead projector set to either side.
