In this charcoal on paper, Olexander depicts a still from a Soviet film of the early sixties, roughly translated "We'll Make it Through until Monday". In this scene, a teacher having a particulary difficult day finds an old photograph of herself and ponders both her youth and what life might have been like had she chosen a different path. We as viewers are seeing this scene from the point of view of the teacher and become part of the moment. 79" l., 42 1/2"w. framed. Canadian; 2011
