A digital self-portrait illustration of Gizem. The mood of the image is dreamy and playful. There is a woman with dark brown, wavy hair smiling slightly. Her skin colour is vibrant orange-pink, painted flatly. Her hair is dark blue to turquoise with a spray brush texture. Her big, puffy hair dominates the illustration. From her hair, black abstract wavy shapes are coming out and creating a messy pattern for the surroundings. She has relatively slit eyes and a crooked nose. Her face looks towards the audience while her right shoulder is more visible. There is an empty white space below her shoulders, again patterned by the black wavy shapes that come from her hair, but this time, they look like water waves.

An self-portrait illustration of Jhinuk, as a female figure from torso upwards wearing a long-sleeved top, drawing in inky line with white ink on a blue ink-washed background. The female is carrying a brain in her right arm (in the arm facing us on the left), and she is looking downwards toward the floor. Behind her head are some hand-drawn words: 'How do I hold my head up in public now?'.
