Utilizing a bold color palette of bright orange and purple-blue, Haring creates a pair of animated twins with two individual bodies and one head. Haring places the two figures back-to-back as they attempt to crawl up the sides of the composition. He outlines the twins in bold, black lines providing a further contrast against the stunningly vibrant colors of the figures and the background. This piece is intriguing due to its transformative nature; in one moment, it appears as if two Siamese twins are trying to escape each other, reaching toward the exterior boundaries of the piece. However, in the next instance, the orange figure appears as a single person with too-many appendages, facing the viewer head-on.
