Image Description: A dark green wire basket, with a metal vine of leaves climbing up both sides of the rounded handle, holds a few dozen small pieces of bumpy textured burl wood The metal leaves on the basket have faded white edges. The basket has a wire pattern that looks like hearts wrapping around it. The burl wood pieces are beige tan and brown with patches of spikes that are small enough to be a good stim when squeezed. The piece sits on a white ledge and from behind the ledge a person cropped at their chest grabs a piece of burl wood in their hand. They are wearing a brown plaid button up shirt and they hold a black cane in the other hand. A green exhibition is behind them.
