This photo shows one corner of the gallery. David smiles and points up toward the top of a tall sculpture, which sits on a narrow wood table. David, the sculpture, and the table are shown in full-view, close to straight-on, with abstract two-dimensional works visible behind them. The sculpture is silver and textured, with dark holes at the eyes and mouth. It has a slight nose, asymmetrical ears, and a tuft of hair at its top.
