This puzzle-like composition is made mainly of black, maroon, and white forms. An orange orb floats amidst one of the black forms at the bottom right. A brown life line rises from the bottom right up along the right edge and over towards the left top corner. Two tiny blue dots are place above and below the brown lifeline near the top left. Multiple yellow dots and dashes are scattered at the top right against a white background. Two small red vertical lines are located at the bottom right corner.
