The artwork portrays interconnected organic shapes with sinuous lines in an abstract composition. The forms resemble elongated ovals or soft pods containing various elements such as entwined figures, floral motifs, and abstract patterns. The surrounding texture resembles a connected, root-like network. Some shapes suggest people and fish-like creatures.
