DescriptionTwo images layered on top of one another: a woman in a mock boxing outfit taken from a Halloween costume advertisement, and a portrait of a person in a colonial military uniform. Taken together, the portrait that ensues is a ghostly image of a boxer in a red jacket and hood, one of their right hands raised up in a boxing glove, the other folded into the belt line of the military uniform.
