A striking figure in a black cloak dominates the center of this composition, set against a pale background with subtle blue washes and dark smudges. The figure holds a bright red heart symbol against their chest, creating a powerful contrast with their dark garments. Above the figure, a decorative golden crescent moon floats with delicate patterns etched into its surface. The moon appears to be dripping or melting in thin red lines. The entire piece is contained within a geometric border of copper-toned squares, creating a window-like frame effect. The figure's dark, flowing robes suggest both concealment and vulnerability, particularly with the exposed heart - a visual representation of the piece's title "hidden but not hiding."
