The sculpture is a pyramid-shaped piece with images of a woman on one side and a crowd scene in blue on another side. The woman has dark hair, a calm expression, and holds a branch. She is framed by a patterned background. The sculpture is made of a material suitable for printing visual designs, with a color palette of black, white, beige, and blue. The polished texture enhances the crisp and detailed appearance of the images and patterns.
