Large scale mixed media sculpture sits on a concrete floor in a gallery. The artwork is abstract and multicolored. On the right of the piece is a blue circle within which is an opening that is painted in trompe l'oeil style to resemble folds and flesh or bone like forms. The circle is attached to two pieces of bent metal, painted light yellow, which sit on the floor. At the other end of the bent metal is a pink metal wire form from which is suspended a white fabric baglike shape. On the bottom right of the sculpture is a long wooden pole that extends from the yellow metal curves across to a small orange stand.
