Shapes are very active in this piece. The simplistic shapes are all angular and irregular giving it "cut n' paste" feel as if a child composed it. For example, the windows on the houses are cut inconsistently. There are no tonal gradients, but only solid, opaque colors.
Dots

Here the dots are arranged to look like a flower because they follow a circular pattern. They also start at one point and radiate outwards just like petals would from the center. There are also some dots that express tonal value like the one in the center.
Movement

What makes this piece so dynamic is its expression in movement. It almost looks as if a man is bending over. Because the direction of the lines start vertically then horizontal and then vertical again, it gives it a sense of movement. The lines are curvaceous and squiggly instead of being stiff and straight.
