A tall, narrow wood sculpture with muted yellow and orange undertones features a stepped top. Off-white paint covers the upper tiers of the blocky silhouette, which includes horizontal projections. The hand-carved form has a rough, uneven texture with visible grain and notches. Simple black lines define rectangular windows on the front and side. Its verticality and tiered structure suggest a weathered architectural model.
