Close-up view of a miniature diorama or shadow box set within a larger red frame. The diorama's interior is also painted a deep red, creating a striking contrast with the miniature objects placed inside. These include three small, light-colored wooden balls affixed to the top of the box, a small wooden clock hanging on the wall, a tiny wooden desk and chair set, a small framed slate or chalkboard, and a small wooden cup or cylindrical object on the floor. Near the lower right corner of the diorama rests a dark, rounded, possibly wooden object that resembles a smooth stone. The overall style is minimalist and somewhat surreal, suggesting a carefully constructed scene with a focus on simple shapes and colours. The lighting is even, highlighting the texture of the wooden objects and the glossy finish of the red paint.
