Growing up on Curaçao shaped how I see the world. Early fascination with how things are made—through shows like “How It’s Made” and “Grand Designs”—taught me how ideas become real. Surrounded by color, sea, and the example of self-reliant parents, I now investigate ideas through art, materials, and projects.

Quincy van Arneman Zimmerman (QVAZ) is a visual artist with a multidisciplinary practice defined by an investigative, material-driven approach. His work moves between painting, graphic and illustrative work, and three-dimensional metal objects. Research and the visibility of the making process are central: studies and finished pieces both feed an ongoing development toward a distinctive artistic signature.
