July 09 - In the garden of Carlo Scarpa, (pencil illustration on Medioevalis Fabriano paper dipped in blue ink)
The courtyard garden of the Fondazione Querini Stampalia museum in Venice was designed by architect Carlo Scarpa in the early 60s, and like his other work is sensitive to materials and the changes of time. Aside from its usual connotations of romance and mystery the significance of the city of Venice here is its seasonal flooding - indeed part of Scarpa's design deliberately allowed water to periodically come into the lobby space of the main building.
The landscape of the garden forms the backdrop to a quiet scene where a boy is sleeping, his head just under the dipped blue ink line of consciousness, unaware of the girl's awareness of her own emotions. The stone lion watches the scene quietly.
