Two sections joined at a notch: white laminated cardboard above, deep red-brown cardboard clay below. The upper section spreads wider than the lower, shoulders over waist. A vertical opening cuts through its center.

Horizontal strata run across the white surface, the layered edges of cardboard sheets visible beneath paint. Staples are scattered across it, some clustered, others isolated. The red-brown section carries tile spacer crosses, irregularly placed.

The form reads as a T-shape, or a kimono seen from above: broad shoulders tapering to a narrow body, with an opening where the collar would fall.
