My greatest inspiration is nature: I'm fascinated by the diversity of nature, the fauna and flora. I contemplate this balance of beauty and equilibrium, this entanglement of colours and shapes.
Arne Quinze is a Belgian contemporary artist working with a variety of mediums including drawing, painting, sculpture, and monumental installation. Fascinated by flora and fauna, the artist confronts nature’s untamed state and its role in urbanisation, ultimately transforming cities into open-air museums.

Send me more information on Arne Quinze
When on first glance we observe some of the public installations of Arne Quinze (Belgium, 1971) such as, for example, The Sequence (Brussels, 2008), Camille (Rouen, 2010) or Red Beacon (Shanghai, 2010), one of the initial ideas that persists is that these pergolas he presents in streets, gardens and on bridges constitute a kind of impressionism which at first is difficult to pin down.
