The galaxy appears as a somewhat irregular, diffuse object. Its overall color is bluish, suggesting the presence of relatively young, hot stars. There is a hint of a slightly brighter, more concentrated region towards the center, which could be interpreted as a nascent or disrupted bulge. However, the overall structure appears quite disturbed, potentially indicative of a recent or ongoing merger event. There are noticeable distortions and asymmetries in the galaxy's light distribution; possible tidal features are also apparent which could be the result of gravitational interactions. Evidence suggests that significant star formation may be ongoing within the system.
