Description

A young child with short blonde hair and a serious expression sits atop a red metal toy seesaw that rests on a small mound of dirt. The child wears blue denim overalls over a light-coloured long-sleeve top and dark shoes. The background consists of a weathered dark concrete wall featuring prominent blue graffiti art and two attached white metal safety ladders mounted horizontally near the upper left. The ground is made of flat concrete pavement extending toward the base of the wall. The composition is captured with a documentary eye by photographer Morten Borgestad, conveying a gritty urban atmosphere.
