Work Description: 
A white boomerang-shaped form sits with its elbow near the bottom left corner of the canvas. Behind the shape, black takes up three-fourths of the upper background; the bottom fourth of the canvas is painted a deep brown color. Three thin parallel white forms rise from the bottom edge, cutting through the dark background and the larger white shape before rising to the center of the canvas. The thin form on the left is bisected by a green stroke, the central form is bisected by red, and the right form is bisected with yellow.
