A vertically oriented screenprint on tan paper depicts a central, four-petaled cream form. Speckled yellow circles rest in each petal, surrounding a core holding a white cross and green plus signs. Below, triangles in black, blue, and yellow point toward an arcing, multi-colored band. This band sweeps across the page to a small figure with a rectangular head and faint, outlined body, its minimalist form splayed against the neutral background.
