The image features flowing lines and irregular shapes intertwined across the composition. It is an abstract artwork that combines elements resembling figures and natural forms. The lines and shapes on the left side and center of the image evoke a rocky landscape or a flowing stream, while the figures scattered throughout the composition may remind the viewer of people caught in movement.
