When dealing with databases of complex objects it would be useful to have an intuitive method to query for desired information. For example, in the multimedia domain a non-specialist might wish to search for a work which reflects a vague and abstract mental image, such as "Find all horror movies with at least one romantic story unit". In this paper we describe first our development of a graph theoretic basis for these kinds of objects, and then introduce a visual tool to assist in the intuitive construction of object queries.
