A vibrant photograph captures the artist (Ewa Zarzycka) standing with her arms raised against a sky-blue backdrop. A green microphone on a stand is positioned before her face. She is dressed in a white shirt and a black t-shirt, wearing glasses. Sunlight illuminates her face and hands, giving her a thoughtful expression, as though she is about to speak.
