Image is portrait of a darkened, sketched silhouette of a figure with curly hair and wearing glasses, facing our left. A pink balloon floats above their head, the string passes through their left eye and goes from the back of their head, over their shoulder and meets the heart.

The image shows a figure wearing black standing to the right of the frame, their arms slightly outstretched. They are grasping onto the many red threads that criss cross in front of them. Their face and hair is also red, and black coloured words cut out of newspaper are placed on the hair such that they look like thoughts. The background of the top half of the image is black with white trails of dots, just like the figure’s clothes, while the bottom half is orange with light brown streaks.
