You can not access outside the root folder in production, because your project is in the root directory of the server
if you want to access that file you create a virtual server that have access to that folder 📂 then you easily can access the img :
<img src={"localhost:8080/img.png"} />
If you tell us more maybe we can give you another solution.
Edit :
this is not just about images you do not have access to anything out of root directory using import
or require
