This poster may portray death as there is blood dripping down half way through his body potentially meaning that he dies, maybe by overdose of painkillers. It may also mean that the painkillers may be slowly taking away his life as half his body has gone. The background is white perhaps meaning that he doesn't take notice of this objects surrounding him and maybe he is trapped inside his mind. The expression on his face also determines sadness and sorrowfulness perhaps portraying the fact something had happened to him in the past.
