Marusia Churai Memorial

Poltava, Ukraine

Marusia Churai Memorial (') is a standing figure of Marusia Churai sculpted by Dmytro Korshunov and Valeriy Holub in Poltava, Ukraine. It is located in the Regional Musical-Dramatic Theatre Nikolai Gogol on Nebesnoyi Sotni Street, the centre of Poltava. The figure was established on 14 April 2006. It had been built for three months: first modelled with clay, then with concrete, and finally covered with copper. Residents nicknamed the figure "Girl with mobile phone" for its posture as Churai's head slid to the right and her right hand raised, resembling a woman who is using mobile phones.
