Athletic photos of five disabled and non-disabled dancers stretching, leaping, crouching and balancing are placed throughout an image that is centered by the large rainbow gradient AXIS logo, with the words
Janpi and Louisa hold a counterbalance with hands intertwined as they lean away from each other. Janpi sits in their wheelchair and looks upwards while Louisa reaches one arm and one leg up in attitude.
