The galaxy presents as a merging system or a galaxy experiencing significant tidal disruption. The core of the main galaxy body appears relatively smooth, suggesting an older stellar population. However, there is a noticeable distortion in its overall shape, with an extended feature suggestive of a tidal tail or bridge of material extending outward. Multiple distinct clumps of brighter, slightly bluer light are visible which suggest areas of recent star formation. These appear associated with the disturbed regions of the galaxy. The colors also indicate a spread of stellar populations, some areas appear to contain more recent star formation, while others appear to be composed of older populations. Overall, this appears to be an intermediate mass galaxy undergoing interactions with another object, or possibly the late stages of a recent interaction.
