Tag - suicide

The image shows a person in a white night gown and long black hair left open. They are outdoors, and holding a night lamp in one hand. In the other, they hold a photoframe with a person’s outline on it. A deep yellow panel symbolising the light goes from the ground to the top illuminating leaves, a water body, clouds and a crescent moon. There are two black panels travelling vertically on the sides of the yellow light; the panels have pairs of white eyes like that of a wild animal, and various plants/shrubs.
