The image appears to be a stage backdrop or wall mural with a dramatic and unsettling artistic depiction. It features a large knife dripping with blood and a dark, tangled structure resembling a head with long hair. The scene is painted on a blue wall, with an adjacent section having a brick pattern. The setting seems to be an indoor or semi-indoor space, possibly a school, community center, or theatrical stage. The caption "CONDEMNABLE!!!" and the author's name, Adesina Adegbite, suggest a strong critical stance against whatever is depicted. The word "condemnable" implies something morally or socially unacceptable. The painting's violent imagery—especially the bloody knife—hints at themes of violence, murder, or oppression, possibly making a statement against such acts. The signature "Sina Adegbite, 2003" at the bottom of the image suggests the artwork was created in that year. The setting, style, and materials used indicate that this might be a piece of stage or performance art aimed at conveying a strong message to an audience. Given the title, it is likely that the image was meant to raise awareness or criticize an issue such as crime, domestic violence, or ritual killings. The use of bright colors, particularly the blue background, contrasts sharply with the dark and violent imagery, emphasizing the horror of the scene. The presence of the knife and the eerie head-like structure suggests themes of horror, tragedy, or cultural critique. This type of visual representation could have been part of a stage drama, advocacy campaign, or artistic protest. In summary, the image is a striking piece of visual storytelling meant to provoke thought and discussion. Its dramatic elements, combined with the title, suggest it is part of a broader narrative condemning violence or injustice.

This picture conveys two concepts or ideas. Firstly is the instinct of the technical aspect of a theatre. One of the technical tools we currently have here as shown in the pics is simply known as scenery. Upon which the scenic design are made is called flat giving a sense of dehumanization of womanhood in the olden days Africa.
