En savoir plus sur le livre
The Boy with the Watering-Can, a tiny Neo-Rococo porcelain figure, is the picture of innocence. He belongs to some unattainable ideal world, as do other protagonists in Stephen Cone Weeks' narratives: a girl with a candle, a drumming pig, a fretwork castle on a hill. But the tranquil sweetness is broken, not least by light reflecting on the surfaces of the layers of glass on which it is depicted. We look into a transparent greenness which protects, reveals, and obscures a fragile story within its depths. Stephen Cone Weeks (b. 1952) studied art in Windsor, Ontario, and in Düsseldorf, where he focused on drawing and lithography. He began working on glass when he found an acrylic compound that adheres to glass and provides an excellent drawing surface for his multifaceted narratives.
