This image shows a close-up of a person holding a drink and a small plate of food. The drink is a light purple beverage with ice and a lemon slice, served in a plastic cup branded with the "Credit One Charleston Open" logo. The food appears to be a taco with melted cheese on a toasted tortilla, topped with chopped lettuce, onions, and other fresh ingredients.

This photo depicts a gathering of people inside an ornate, historical room with vintage decor. The room features distressed walls with decorative molding, a grand chandelier with multiple candle-style lights, and a black fireplace adorned with framed artwork. The artwork includes iconic "Obey" prints associated with Shepard Fairey, featuring bold graphic designs in red, black, and white. In the center of the room, a striking art installation is displayed — a boat covered in Fairey's signature designs, including the word "OBEY" and stylized motifs. Several people are present, some are engaged in conversation, while others are observing the artwork.
