From a distance, the bench looks green. Upon closer inspection, large spots of red can be seen from under the green and the below the layers of green and red, you can see purple. The bench is composed of wood that looks weathered, and metal that has rust. The metal poles of the bench are connected to concrete. The discs of concrete had parts falling off and the metal rods under the bench were surrounded by numerous number of cigarette butts. The paint was flaking off the metal rods holding the bench up. The wood on the bench had an slightly abrasive surface and some bowing.
