"Philips 'girls' are almost forgotten. Their sound is almost extinct. What remains is a picture: Circles around an axis like a spinning top, which turns softly singing his final laps, bequeathing traces of previous beweging.Ooit must toll-like shape are put in motion, as ever girls bijPhilips his work. They are developed and appear only continue to live they are called in the herinnering.'De Philips' girls, all those girls and women. They are seen as a group, a collective, although individual people, with their own unique life. The image can be in this light today unveiled seen as' girls' who have turned in circles around the 'Philips axis. However, the title of the picture is not "The women are perfected," the women who have completed their life with Philips, but "The Woman's Perfected," every woman has her unique way complete life in the factory. The literal translation of the title "The Woman is Perfected" is "The woman is perfected. It is the first sentence of the poem Edge, which means border or edge, of the American author Sylvia Plath. Irene Judong gives us a helping hand with the title. The sentence "The woman is perfected" is in the perfect tense. The artist refers to it as the oekomende past, just as the author intended. A week after writing her last poem, on February 7, 1963, Sylvia Plath took his own life. She wrote her completion in time for her to come past. By naming it so, two key concepts which appear indeed to do with the image and with "The girls' are: Time and Motion. Irene Judong sees reality as a survival-term process in which everything has to do everything and where everything fits together. For her it is a wavy motion. But they also see that each individual life is a complete whole, has a beginning and an end. She calls that "compressed time", time is compressed between beginning and end. The continuous motion, and the compressed time are connected by the links of individual forms of life. These are the links that merge into each other from generation to generation. The continuous motion can than be seen as the axis around which each unique link joins as a compressed unit."
