The image shows bold, black, abstract lines forming two human-like figures engaged in a handshake. One figure holds a rectangular shape resembling a briefcase. Speech bubbles containing unclear text hover near their heads. The outlined space around them resembles a hallway, and beneath the figures are scrawled black ink letters and words with some red elements.
