The image shows black, angular shapes and curving lines on a white background. The artwork uses bold, overlapping forms suggesting motion and depth. Some shapes resemble objects like parts of a maze or the branches of a tree in a silhouette. The play of positive and negative space adds to the complexity of the design.
