A double exposure photograph, wherein two images are faded onto one another in a single image, of Jane sitting at her desk on a black office chair. Jane is a light skin East Asian person, with her eyes closed, wearing brown and black glasses and short black hair that slightly flares at the end with rounded bangs like a bowl. In one exposure Jane’s face is larger and closer to the camera; there are lights directly behind her. In the other, she is sitting on a black office chair and holding a sliced open half of a pomegranate. Behind her is a round, moon-like light. The desk behind her is a medium orange-brown and contains a head shelf, with books ordered in red, black, white, and the rest of the rainbow ordered on the top of the table. There’s a small brown monkey plushie near the left end of the desk. There’s a black and white ink illustration above the orange to blue books on top of the desk where there’s an open space.
