Black may need to be careful, but black should win. The B minds two pawns, the K can mind 2 pawns, and the R should be able to beat the remaining pawns because they're not far advanced. If the white K gets himself too involved in the play, there are mating threats.

This looks like an endgame compostion as it is very imbalanced. Based on static features, Black has the advantage (8 points vs. 6); but on the dynamic side, White has a huge advantage in his six passed pawns. Also, we don't know which side has the move.

I think Black is better, especially if it is black to play - then ...Ke5 looks simple and strong.

Whites pawns are pretty static, and the black pieces are well placed.

it was white to move next, is there any way a draw could be forced?
