The sculpture is a square grid formation of identical small square tiles placed on the floor. Each tile is crafted from a material resembling terracotta or a similar clay-based product, presenting a uniform earthy red-brown color. The tiles create an evenly spaced pattern flush with the floor surface, blending seamlessly with the wooden flooring. The overall effect is subtle and understated, suggesting continuity with the environment while maintaining a distinct surface texture and limited color palette.
