A digital collage-style illustration depicting themes of incarceration and forced labor. In the center, a person wearing a prison jumpsuit stands with their hands cuffed behind their back, overlaid with barbed wire. To the left, a grainy black-and-white photo of a person in tattered clothing suggests historical forced labor or slavery. On the right, two incarcerated individuals wearing uniforms labeled "CDCR PRISON" perform construction work. The background consists of layered textures, muted earth tones, and distressed effects, visually connecting past and present systems of confinement and labor exploitation.
