The sculpture consists of two adjoining rectangular boxes, each displaying unique patterns and colors. The larger box has red inner walls and a black and white dot pattern on its recessed base. The adjacent smaller box showcases a checkerboard pattern of red, black, and white with added stripes on its inner wall. The sculpture sits on a white square base, enhancing the contrast of the boxes and emphasizing their geometric shapes against the neutral background. The materials used include painted surfaces and printed paper, giving the sculpture a modern and vibrant look.
