Miep Maarse

The sculptures by Dutch artist Miep Maarse are optimistic in tone and message. Through her sculptures she shows us her positive view on the world and humanity.

Animals play a major role in Miep Maarse's sculptures. Hippos, elephants and bears serve as a source of inspiration. She knows how to exploit the light-hearted gravity and tenderness of these powerhouses in a professional and original way. Her animals do not become humans, but acquire recognizable human features.
