This is a line art drawing that uses the value of the lines by making them darker the closer into the spiral they are. The overall pattern that is displayed is an example of overlap, as the pattern is made up of many shapes, but flows through each of them smoothly. The size of each shape gets smaller and rotated to form spirals inside each shape, making the overall pattern possible. To describe the piece, it consists of a spiral pentagon surrounded by a spiral square on each side with spiral triangles connecting each square. There are two triangle spiral shapes on the right side of the drawing and a trapezoid spiral on the left that connects it to three spiral rectangles, which end in one spiral triangle on each side. Depending on how this drawing is viewed, it can be interpreted in different ways, for instance from the landscape angle, it could look like the head of a bird, with the right triangle as a beak, the left area as a neck and wings, and the center of the head, an eye. On the other hand, the portrait angle of this drawing could be seen as a tower with a large base and a large round room with windows, and a roof. This piece was made mostly with repetition in the spiral design and shapes that make it up, but they blend together in some areas to make curved lines where they are all made of straight lined shapes.
