The image features curved black lines on a canvas, some spiraling at the ends. The upper portion has ascending and bending lines, while the lower portion has spirals and loops. There is a horizontal line separating the top and bottom halves, and the lines crisscross in the middle. There appears to be a shape resembling an abstract animal form or a cloud resting on a rectangular platform amid the lines.
