Creation process: steel atelier

The creation of a Lupine for Brazil

The creation of a Lupine sculpture whose final destination is Brazil.

The artist seeks the right balance of his sculpture in the steel atelier. Both strength and fragility of nature must be reflected evenly in his sculptures.

The Lupine is a flower that inspires Arne Quinze deeply. The flower grows everywhere in the world; between rocks, in the mountains, along the coast, in dry and humid areas. Another strength of this extraordinary Lupine flower is that it makes the soil around it more fertile, thus promoting the growth of other vegetation.

This is exactly what Arne wants to stimulate with his sculptures; encourage the viewer of his sculpture to live in harmony with nature and embrace its diversity every day.
