Painted en plein air in the south of Spain, Locked by Water I reflects Verkaeren’s intense engagement with a scorched and silent environment. The work captures the fading lushness of Mediterranean vegetation as a fragile echo within a dried-out landscape. Gestural yet meditative, the painting channels the tension between abundance and absence, registering the ecological unease at the heart of the Locked by Water series.
