A horizontally oriented black ink print on pink paper depicts an abstracted city landscape. Dense building clusters on the left and right are formed by jagged, vertical strokes. Fine dotted lines and overlapping scratches create a web-like texture throughout. In the foreground, smaller geometric shapes like columns flank a central path that recedes into the distance. Sharp, thin lines build a fractured urban scene, guiding the eye toward the empty center.
