Rainbow-colored portrait of a Central Asian woman with large, puffy hair; when viewer stands to left of hologram, she is shown in profile, though her head is turned so that she is looking back over her left shoulder at the viewer; as the viewer moves to right, her body turns so that her back is facing the viewer; at the same time, she turns her head and cranes it slightly backwards, while raising her right arm up and outwards.
