The protagonist of this funny story digs a hole in the ground, deposits a seed and returns day after day - before the expectant gaze of a bird - with the desire to see the flower that would grow from the grain grow. Still nothing? Mr. Luis asked himself every morning, when he saw that nothing was coming up.
Until one fine day...
"Still nothing?" It is a simple text with a great message
that invites reflection: the value of patience and perseverance to situate ourselves in the world. Through the process of germination of a seed and the growth of the plant, Christian Voltz builds - with humor and a touch of tenderness - a metaphor
of everyday life, with its satisfactions and frustrations.
His original illustrations are made with recycled materials such as paper and wire, they play with the combination of flat and relief elements, and are seasoned with typographic games. Simple, but not simple, they are very attractive, suggestive and expressive.
