This wire sculpture represents a life size male figure. The figure is seated on a stool sculpted of cream-colored wire, and he plays a bongo drum made of wire held between his legs. The figure's yellow wire hands rest just above the drum and attach to his arms and torso made of green wire. The man wears glasses. His face is turned to his proepr left shoulder, and his mouth is open in song. The sculpture rests on a wooden base.
