Although the artist’s commissioned sculptures are distinguished from her free works in scale and form, the expressed three-dimensional character is typical for all of Martha Waijop her works. In her view, a sculpture must be interesting from all angles. It is this which according tot the artist, defines the sculptural character. During the creative process, she therefore always places her sculptures on a rotating device in front of a mirror. “To me a sculpture is good if it surprises me from all points of view.”
