An illustration of four screens on a wall displaying people. The screen on the far left displays a woman wearing glasses in blue and the screen to her right displays a man wearing a striped shirt looking down towards the bottom right corner of his screen. The bottom right corner of his screen overlaps with the top left corner of the screen next to it. This screen displays a woman with long black hair - she is looking up towards the man wearing in the striped shirt. There is a woman swinging her legs while perched on top of the screen displaying the woman with the long black hair. The fourth screen on the right side of the wall displays two people, one man wearing a red shirt and a woman wearing orange. The man in the red shirt looks towards the woman perched on the third screen. Below the screens are two onlookers. One woman stands in front of the screens with her hands on her hips to the left, the other looks up at the screens while seated on stairs on the righthand side.
