Rose mirror and mixed concrete

This piece from Islands In The Sky by Quinda Verheul captures the essence of open landscapes, drawing color inspiration from the ochres and pinks of the Moroccan desert and mountains. The warm, earthy hues echo the vivid tones found in these rugged terrains, where the sun-bleached sands and weathered stones radiate life. Being in these vast, untamed spaces gives my mind room to wander, where thoughts drift like clouds across the horizon. The organic shapes and soft colors reflect moments spent outdoors, where I feel most connected to the earth and my own instincts, exposed yet entirely at peace. These works are a celebration of nature’s grounding warmth and the profound clarity it offers.

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.

Sandblasting in rose mirror

“Noctilucent” by Quinda Verheul is a contemporary, minimalistic wall sculpture crafted through sandblasting techniques that modify the surface of a mirror. The sandblasting process disperses minuscule particles, transforming the reflective quality of the mirror into a misty, almost ephemeral surface. This altered state creates an atmosphere of quiet subtlety, inviting viewers to experience a sensory shift in perception.

The piece is inspired by natural phenomena that blend simplicity and splendor, a sunset in a mountainous desert where a lone cloud catches the light, glowing against a vast sky. “Noctilucent” distills this moment, drawing on the idea that through selective framing, even the most transient details of nature can evoke an artful composition. The artwork emphasizes how minimal visual cues can resonate deeply, echoing the interplay between the tangible and the abstract.
