This sculpture demonstrates Fibichová’s later shift towards monumental, economical geometric stylized forms of sculpture, a position to which her work evolved from its initial focus on figural forms. Although this work dates from the second half of the 1980s, its form evokes a 1960s informel aesthetic. The sculpture resonates with Fibichová’s typical imprints of ancient cultures as well as the work of the Italian modernist sculptor Marino Marini.
