About the artwork.
Lilla Kulka was a painter and student of Magdalena Abakanowicz—one of the most influential artists of postwar Poland—and directly felt her influence. Kulka’s compositions, such as the silhouetted form of Na Ścieżce (On the Path V), sometimes combine the shading and rendering techniques of painting with the textural properties of cotton and thread.
