The image is filled with intricate, swirling shapes and lines that converge around a central square shape featuring a stylized face. The square face is adorned with simple line-drawn eyes, a small nose, and circular cheeks. Surrounding the face are chaotic forms that give the impression of folded fabric or limbs intertwined. At the top and bottom edges of the piece, a row of indiscernible letters, forming an unreadable text, frames the intricate design.
