Image description: A collaged image featuring a portrait of a mixed heritage Black woman with shorter red-brown curly hair held back by a pink and white visor. She wears a hand dyed indigo shirt underneath a blue hawaiian shirt decorated with images of palm trees and guitars. She has a warm smile on her face and stands in front of a plain white wall. In the bottom right corner is an Ilford brand disposable camera and two manila envelopes, one with a large black question mark on its front.
