“The Cataract” highlights the duality of perception and examines the two distinct perspectives from which the viewer and the artist engage with the artwork. A notable aspect of the composition is a cup, which has been a prominent visual motif in Olszowy’s work for years. The cups in her art symbolize the multifaceted role of coffee in culture and the diverse connotations it evokes, ranging from sociability and fortune-telling to colonialism.
