Nine distinct black-and-white anime-style character portraits printed on white rectangular cards resembling Polaroids. Each card has a thin black border and displays a single phrase below the portrait: 'many', 'shapes and', 'weights to', 'choose from', 'I will', 'never', 'leave my', 'bedroom'. Portraits show varied hairstyles, facial expressions (smiling, neutral, serious), and features including glasses on one character. Cards are layered in a grid with overlapping edges against black background; some cards partially obscured by others.
