The Never Lost series consists of wall sculptures and three dimensional work that is reminiscent of eroded and weathered fragments of mountains. For this, she experimented with new materials and techniques that allowed her to create her own versions of an imagined world. In this, one can discover strong references to existing landscapes that Quinda Verheul previously visited, such as Utah and Iceland. Yet, her work retains a certain mystery, something intangible. The play of light on the curved, velvet-like structures creates an intriguing effect for the viewer. ‘Never Lost’ tells stories of unknown landscapes and lays bare some of the invisible processes that go into the alterations of landscapes in a very subtle way.

Rose and ochre concrete on rose mirror
Quinda Verheul immerses herself in the constantly changing landscapes and the influence that humans have on them. She is fascinated by natural forces like wind, water and sunlight, and often addresses grand topics like the exploitation of natural resources which alter the landscape. Yet, there are different aspects to the same topic which Quinda explores in different series. This is reflected in her use of raw, earthy materials such as sand and natural stone. Mirrors form a returning metaphorical element in her sculptures and installations which invite spectators to reflect on themselves while simultaneously exploring different perspectives. The results are unique aesthetic translations which are able to present new confrontational information within a certain comfort.
