A person in an orange robe sits on a white cushioned throne-style chair behind a small white table with a water bottle and laptop, reading from papers beside a microphone stand. In the foreground, roughly a dozen seated audience members in white clothes and yellow-trimmed garlands face the stage, with a blue and orange mat spread on the floor.
