- Theaster Gates: 13th Ballad–
- Long A mustard-yellow rectangle rests on a unfinished wooden floor up against a tattered, flower-patterned wall. Within the rectangle is a smaller rectangular photo of a person looking down, cropped from the torso to the top of the head. They are wearing a blue shirt and have black hair and are in front of a white background. The figure holds red circular balls, in movement, attached to wooden sticks. On the left-hand side of the mustard-yellow frame, horizontally the word "BOX" is in stenciled black letters. Below that is a black "W" and below that is a black "WT," all in a stenciled, horizontal font. On the right-hand side of the inner photo are the black letters "E.S." The picture is contained within a window-like picture frame.
