The Light of the Stained Glass
The studio is a space defined by the interplay of light and glass. In Belgium, the craft of the stained-glass artist takes on a specific, technical rigor. Van de Weghe works within this medium, manipulating light to define form and space. The practice is one of precision, where the transparency of the material dictates the final impact of the work.
The focus remains on the physical properties of the glass itself. Unlike painters who apply pigment to a surface, this artist works with the very substance that allows light to pass through. It is a discipline of color and structure, where the medium is the message.

A Legacy in Glass
The presence of Van de Weghe in the Musée Des Beaux in Québec City highlights a connection between Belgian craftsmanship and international collections. A specific work, titled Sans titre, dates back to 1955. This piece represents a moment in the artist's development, captured within the permanent archives of the museum.
