The artwork is a black-and-white photograph of a chessboard with a single white pawn standing on the first rank. The pawn is facing a wall, on which is projected the shadow of a black king. The shadow is much larger than the pawn, and it looms over the pawn menacingly. The artwork is a metaphor for the power of perspective and illusion. The pawn is a small and insignificant piece, but from the right angle, it can appear to be a powerful king. This artwork is a reminder that things are not always as they seem.
