The image displays a vibrant green textured background that fills the frame, giving the impression of a textured wall or canvas.

At the top, there is a small segment featuring a contrasting color and texture in shades of blue and teal, possibly representing a geographical form or a body of water. Centered in the middle of the green field is a square plaque with the word "AFRICA" clearly inscribed, suggesting the theme or subject of the artwork. Below this, nearer to the bottom, is another irregularly shaped segment in a dark color, providing a visual counterpoint to the element at the top. This composition could be interpreted as a stylized, abstract map, with the green representing the land and the top and bottom segments suggesting surrounding territories or different environmental features. The prominent placement of the word "AFRICA" anchors the artwork's thematic focus, while the overall texture adds depth and complexity to the piece.
