A cloth with a simple multi-colored pattern is tied roughly into two knots allowing folds and creases to form freely. The shapes of the pattern are possibly diamonds but hard to recognize due to the many folds. A thin, white cord winds around the sheet on both ends. The background is white with a grey background consisting of the sheet's shadow and nine vertically tilted stripes.

The artist ties a colorful textile into two knots, creating many shadowed folds and ridges. She contrasts that with the clean white background and its simple striped pattern.
