Acceptance/Disgust

Acceptance/Disgust centers around an impossible figure of the woman looking down in defeat, while also raising her hands in Orant (surrending to the powers that be). If you take a closer look, you'll notice that the woman's shoulders and arms are down and that the arms that you can see aren't actually her's - the lighting is coming from the opposite direction and they're actually a male's arms, but they still would occupy the same space, if, somehow, this scene was possible.

This is echoed in the optical illusion of the Impossible Fork - two disparate images that blend together perfectly, but cannot at the same time, be there.

The background is another famous optical illusion of color shifting, hinting that things are not quite as they seem (there are only 3 different colors in the background - not four)
