This is a black and white photograph showing a somewhat whimsical or conceptual piece. It depicts an open, black hard-shell briefcase from which an apparently mechanized and articulated white wooden structure is emerging or unfolding. This structure has what looks like metal hinges and rods, suggesting that it might be able to move or extend further. Nested within this mechanical wooden array is a classic-looking camera with a lens facing outwards, as if ready to take a photograph. There is also a semi-transparent plastic bag visible inside the briefcase, the contents of which are not clearly discernible. The background is plain and unadorned, drawing attention to the subject at hand. The image gives the impression of a surrealist or inventive object, blending the everyday item of a briefcase with what looks like a complex mechanical contraption.
