A vertically oriented lithograph in grainy black ink depicts people in various skin tones entangled within thick, dark beams. At the top toward our right, a figure with an open mouth stands behind shadowy figures. Below them, near the center, a light-skinned figure raises a hand to their head. Throughout, distorted limbs and faces emerge from heavy strokes, creating a chaotic scene of overlapping, struggling forms against a speckled background.
