This vertical, abstract painting is made up of overlapping, intersecting geometric forms in shades of gray, cobalt blue, white, and black. The largest form is made up of a pair of black bands, running side by side, that extend up from the lower left corner to curve to the right off the edge of the composition beneath the upper right corner. The bands are shaded with pale gray along the bottom edges. In front of that curving black form, a vivid white, narrow triangle like a blade cuts into the composition from near the lower left corner, and it stretches halfway across the painting at an upward angle. The bottom edge of the triangle is painted nickel gray, suggesting that it has another facet in a three-dimensional form. A vertical shaft running behind the curving form is black at the top and cobalt blue where it is nestled under the curving form. The background lightens from steel gray at the corners to brighter white near the center.
