Each portion of the face (eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, chin) is a different kind of optical illusion with different shapes such as circles, diagonal lines, and rectangles. Beneath the main portion of the piece is an additional box with a triangular geometric figure, underneath which is some text by the artist. There is a superscript of text above the main piece as well.
