She was commissioned to make a painting for the new courthouse of Dutch Supreme Court in The Hague that opened in 2015. Since 2023 she works as professor in painting for Dresden Academy of Fine Arts. Verhoeven's works seem to explore the theme of ceremonial gatherings. She makes monumental-sized paintings that are populated with contorted figures in various states of rapture, despair, lust and estrangement. She is the daughter film director Paul Verhoeven.
