![[Image description] A male Southeast Asian wheelchair dancer is in a gravity defying head stand in the middle of the image. He is balanced upside down on the side of his head, his position supported by his right hand on the floor. His left arm is stretched out towards the camera, palm open, tattoo on his arm vaguely visible. He is gazing intently at his open palm. The wheelchair is tipped slightly away from the camera, wheels suspended in mid air. He is wearing golden coloured costumes gleaming in amber light, which is coming from behind him, cutting through haze and the dark background.
