Sinurat ni Joanna Inglot sa The Figurative Sculpture of Magdalena Abakanowicz an dapit sa mga obrang ini: "[they] pointed to Abakanowicz's early fascination with the natural world and its processes of germination, growth, blooming, and sprouting. They seem to capture the very energy of life, a quality that would become a constant feature of her art."
