This cotton textile has a rectangular blue frame surrounding varying angled geometric shapes and patterns. All seemingly random and placed on top or harmoniously to their neighboring lines, these shapes are all straight but range from triangles placed within rectangles, zigzags, arrows, and straight diagonal lines. Small triangles split in half become adjacent to zig zags, the zig zags appear as if they're placed in front of rectangles, creating even more triangles and asymmetrical blocks. The one thing in common is that no shape of the same color touches. The shapes are either black, orange, turquoise, teal, mint green, white, or light blue.
