dc.description . It is an art work that calls upon women to participate in all available worthy job activities that can alleviate them from poverty. In this particular work, the artist presents women working indifferent industries; Hospitals, business and commerce, construction and office work. The strength of this work comes from the artist’s style of suggestive line based figures where he reduces them only to essential forms a reminder to the art movement of minimalism which was popular during the 1960s in the western world. Every figure is almost reduced to a line and the heads to a ball. White colours are used to create contrast and blues and purples to create harmony throughout the painting. His use of carved forms suggests a sense of movement and the work oriented activities throughout the painting creates a sense mobility that liberates the painting from a visual point of stagnation en_US
