This is a bronze sculpture of an abstract landscape. The base is rectangular with a textured surface. Two objects emerge from the rectangular base. The larger object has the appearance of a cylindrical bundle with a stick attached by a band at one end that rises upward away from the bundle at an angle. A curved piece of bronze "string" runs from the bundle to the nearest corner. The second object has the appearance of a bundle made from a stick and a spoon-shaped piece bound by cord. A long "stick" runs parallel to this bundle. A triangular corner piece appears to the left of the artist's signature. The piece has an overall light reddish-brown patina.
