A horizontal, rectangular woodblock is covered in muted green paint. Its surface is heavily textured with jagged gouges and interlocking geometric forms. Deeply carved, vertical shapes resembling tree trunks stand beside smaller irregular polygons. Recessed areas reveal reddish-brown wood grain beneath the green surface. To the right, a thick vertical form extends from the top to bottom edge. Sharp diagonal cuts and deep-set lines fill the remaining space.
