The image depicts a stylized depiction of two koi fish swimming in opposite directions, surrounded by stylized water and waves. The koi fish are rendered in a bold, graphic style, with clean lines and geometric shapes that give them a modern and abstract feel. The water and waves are depicted in a more fluid and organic way, with curved lines and soft shapes that evoke a sense of movement and energy.

The overall effect of the image is one of dynamic tension and balance, as the two koi fish seem to be pulling in opposite directions while still being connected by the surrounding water and waves. The use of bold colors and graphic shapes adds to the sense of energy and movement, creating a visually striking and engaging image.

The image may be intended to represent the yin-yang symbol, which is often depicted as two interconnected spirals or circles that represent the opposing forces of the universe. The koi fish could represent the opposing forces of yin and yang, while the water and waves could represent the flow of energy and the interconnectedness of all things.

Here's a description of the image:

The image presents an artistic rendering, likely of a metal panel or screen, featuring a koi fish swimming amongst water and aquatic plants. The design is created through negative space: the koi, water, and plants are represented by the absence of material, allowing light to pass through and forming the image.

The background is a deep, reddish-brown color, likely due to the material's natural oxidation or a specific treatment. The koi are stylized with scales and subtle details. Water is represented by various lines and fragmented shapes giving the impression of movement and light.

The cut-out design allows light to pass through the white spaces, creating a stark contrast with the darker metal.
