High angle from a top corner of the room looking down of a 31-year-old male home cook alone, scowling with furrowed brows and a tight mouth, of Western European descent, very fair porcelain skin with pink undertones, an athletic build, an oval face, amber eyes, thin fine eyebrows, laugh lines around the eyes, straight hair with a slight bend at the ends, short cropped strawberry-blonde hair in neat cornrows, a thick moustache, soft grey loungewear. He tosses vegetables in a well-worn wok over a gas stove in a small apartment kitchen. The wok has dark seasoning marks from years of use. A bowl of chopped chilies and garlic sits next to the stove. The gas flame is visible under the wok, flickering. Other pans and ingredients clutter the counter around the stove. The instant film camera creates a small square frame with soft colours and a slight vignette. Short light from a lamp on the far side lights the turned-away side of the face and leaves the near side in shadow. Lines of the surroundings converge on the main figure. Shot on an instant film camera, with soft colors, a square format, and a noticeable vignette around the edges.
