This is one of several works of art by Olga Wolniak exhibited in the Museum. It is made out of two large wooden boards and it depicts two expressive figures – one is a blatantly sexual female, as expressed in a well-endowed bust, a rounded figure and a full head of long hair. The second one is a figure that vacillates between masculine and feminine motifs, like an African statue devoid of any identity. Similarly to Ilana Goor, for this work of art, Wolniak used materials that she found around her house such as pieces of cardboard, wooden springs and even parts of the painter's palette she used to create her work.
