Bronze sculpture consisting of overlapping and intersecting forms with sharp angular edges streaking horizontally out in both directions. A long strip of metal juts out parallel to the black base, on top of which are shorter angular pieces of metal. Another piece of metal swoops out at an angle from these pieces, ending in a point. The glint of light off the bronze highlights alternating smooth and rough patches.
