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 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.
