A square monochromatic lithograph depicts a dark silhouetted figure in a bulky suit and pointed hood, posed as an ice skater. Facing forward, they balance on one skate while lifting the other. A limited palette of gray and black shades the print in mottled splotches, punctuated by light, irregular ovals and splatters. Vertical drips and thin lines cross the composition, which features rough, uneven edges.
