The artwork features abstract geometric shapes with bold, overlapping curves and angular lines. On the left, a pink and beige rectangular background is intersected by a large, curved form in shades of pink and yellow. The right side mirrors this structure with a similar arrangement in purple and orange, set against a multicolored background of pastel squares.
