This square composition features a figure set against a cosmic backdrop with a large planetary body visible in the upper right corner. Three diagonal white lines slice across the image, creating a fragmented effect that speaks to the title's concept of "folding." The color palette combines cool blues and turquoise with warm copper and orange tones, particularly visible in the decorative border that frames the piece. The background shows a starry night sky in deep black, while the figure appears to be wearing light-colored clothing that blends into ethereal, cloudy wisps. The overall effect creates a dreamlike quality that reinforces the "mirage" aspect of the title, with the sharp geometric lines contrasting against the softer, more fluid elements of the composition.
