The image showcases an intriguing sculpture consisting of twisted, coiled structures made from a reddish-brown material, with the appearance of being intricately woven. These structures resemble a sequence of interconnected organic forms, almost like a series of elongated bulbs or knots strung together. At either end of these twisted forms, there are clusters of frayed, green material resembling grass or plant-like appendages.
