Creative Access Description

A black and white landscape image of a Siksika man with long dark hair hovering over a metal chair with his legs bent and body leaning forward. He wears a set of white pyjamas with thin vertical stripes. He looks towards the audience with lips rounded as if pronouncing a U sound, the edges curving into a smile. His arms are bent at a 90-degree angle hovering over a table next to him. The small table holds a variety of objects including a bottle of wine, a glass of wine and framed pictures. Another chair with a shoebox sitting on it sits to the left of him. Hung on the wall behind him are several images of Bette Davis, including a cartoon illustration emphasizing her dark eyes and prominent brow. The remainder of the set is obscured by shadows. The edge of the top right corner is overexposed, the dark shadows fading into white.
