This framed mixed media portrait by Adebunmi Gbadebo is a composition of screen-printed white hand-made paper, cotton, clumps and strands of black hair, and varying degrees of indigo dye. At the center, from the upper right quadrant to the lower left quadrant, is a long, diagonal gap with hair mimicking stitching across the gap. The edges of the portrait are rough. In the bottom right quadrant is black text: [#18 CALEDONIA | GOLF & FISH CLUB] and below [GOLF & FISH].
