  "The Cat’s Cradle" – a children’s game using yarn, but the word-for-word translation of its Estonian equivalent, kassikangas, is "cat’s fabric". To be able to comprehend this work of art, one has to recognize the face of the Estonian born supermodel Carmen Kass (her last name meaning "cat"), and since the piece pays homage to Andy, knowledge of Andy Warhol's work is also advisable.
