The Touch by Iwona Langowska is a multi-perspective sculpture, with each side presenting its different appearance. In the front part, the stone was roughly dressed, unsmoothed. However, the sides and back – even though the texture remains rough – have more precise, cubic design, being cut perpendicular to the ground plane. Two types of stone have been used here, they vary in tint: light-coloured at the bottom and grey-pink, in some parts polychromed, at the top. The different nature of the material is also highlighted by the diversity in composition of these elements: the block at the bottom constitutes in fact a kind of quasi-pedestal, the socle whose spatial form resembles half-length presentation of the body and the head attached. The back side of the sculpture conceals a surprise – in a niche carved in the upper part of the “bust” there is a braid, made of natural hair, running down the “back”. [N.

The artist often leaves it almost unwrought, in the state in which she found it, not developing the solid surface in great detail. At the same time, she plays with this craft, bringing non-traditional materials into her compositions – in the case of the discussed sculpture: a girl
