Arne Quinze’s talent lies in his ability to fuse polar extremes – passion and chaos with controlled elegance. He creates immaculate, urbane and polished works that are balanced with a certain contradictory tension, giving them a refined yet exuberant appearance. He realises his ideas with verve and is able to generate crossovers between art and architecture as if it were child’s play.
Every new creation captures his research and study on interaction, urbanism, movement, speed and light in present-day society. Quinze scans a city in the blink of an eye and grasps the ongoing rhythm running through multifarious buildings and settlements which expresses the continuous evolution of human beings and their surroundings. Man cannot survive alone; we find refuge in one another. Neglecting our human needs, we live in an era where social interaction has been well nigh diminished to non existent.
