The sculpture depicts a soldier dressed in military attire, holding a firearm in a ready position. The soldier's uniform is colored in camouflage shades, mainly green and beige, and the sculpture appears to be made of plastic or a similar material. Behind the figure, there is a sign with bold red octagonal shapes and text that reads "DANGER STAY BACK" accompanied by its Arabic translation. The setting of the sculpture includes elements resembling a military vehicle or equipment with a weathered, industrial look. The sculpture is presented in focus against a blurred backdrop.
