Juror's notes: One can see the frustration the woman in this image is experiencing as she struggles to join the outside world, a feeling many of us have experienced in the last several months. The creative composition with the woman on the extreme right and the door on the far right shows the closeness, yet distance between them and her impossible escape. The doorbell is a reminder that while she is trapped inside, no one will be coming to release her.
