'Swollen Bollock' (1945) - Marfona on silk
Sandra Koodle's immense contribution to the art world reached it's peak with this suggestive work. Clearly an allusion to the impending baby boom following the end of the war, Koodle welcomed home the rugged soldiers regularly at her farmhouse in upstate New York, relishing the physical effect of war upon their bodies. It provokes the viewer.
