Gingerbread Cyclops

I saw these Gingerbread Cyclopean Women at the university library coffee shop, which doubles as my studio. They are both missing a left eye.

Stan Gooch describes the left/right characteristics as follows:

Matriarchy                                            Patriarchy  
Goddess                                                God
Moon                                                     Sun
Night                                                     Day
Art                                                         Science
Magic                                                    Reason
