Eaux de Vie 1 and 2

In the 1990s Barbara stumbled across an old 500 Swiss franc banknote depicting a purple orchid, a muscular human torso and two lungs. She made a sketch of it then forgot about it for many years until she finished the piece entitled Two Chambers. Wondered how to extend it upwards, she chanced upon the sketch of the lungs that became her inspiration.
