Murchek appears to be signature of this scene with ekg monitoring treadmill activity. Very detailed, and unusual subject. There was actually a second one of the same scene but unfinished when I got this one.

can we see the hands of the one operating the ekg? it looks like she's playing the piano.
It's very unusual..I like it.
stress test...
what do you know about provenance, like where found...
looks like not very prolific artist; did find a paper mâché clown with same Murchek signature

Unfortunately not much to go on with provenance, found at second hand store. The second one was either incomplete or damaged as the head was loose and it was with out a metallic finish like this. I’ll swap one pic for her other side
I used to (many years ago) work for a company assembling, testing and doing quality assurance on a system just like this. I ran some stress tests on these systems.
An unfunny story... This was in the 1980s, when microprocessor tech was new and hot. Also under several export bans by the U.S. to places like the USSR. There was a big medical equipment show in Moscow and my company seriously wanted to show their gear there so sent it to France? where it could be sent to Moscow. When it came back, it was gutted. It contained several microprocessors (8086? 80186?). I did not find out about this until the gear came back empty and the shell was made go disappear. There were some very shaken management scumbags. I was the Production Lead at the time.
The company was in Seattle, in case that helps.
