A Collage of black and white photographs. On the right side there is an old carpet and in the middle of the picture a circle of stones with one stone in the centre seems to float within the scene. Behind the circle there is a white wall with arabic letters on it. In the Background there is the wall of a garage and behind that the roof of a house visible. Over the collage there are blue brushstrokes in a wavelike motion.
