RAF: Prosthetic Location
A tight shot of an Asian man dressed in a white collared shirt, brown suede vest, and brown cowboy hat. He has dark brown eyebrows, a close cut bread, and is wearing stud earrings. Perched on his shoulder, gently propped up by his hands, is a green mold of a cow’s head. He is tilting his head gently with his eyes closed so that his head and the cow’s head together create the shape of a heart.
