Abstract:
A nurse and a male patient, both in white, are sitting on the ground. The patient's arms are bent, his palms joined at the base, his fingers cupped. Above them a male figure in a white robe is standing, his right arm shielding his face, his left streched down his side, palm facing forward, a stream of blood trickling down his lower forearm and palm into the patient's hands.
