ART & ARTIFACTS
LA PANTERA
(CLICK ON IMAGES TO ENLARGE)
ARTIST'S STATEMENT
"For many years I have been making things…small sculptured heads ("allies"), magical tools, masks, jewelry, drums, etc….which appear to be artifacts from some primitive tribal culture, some 'otherworld'. The materials and techniques used to make the objects are both ancient (bones, stones, horn, hand-shaping, chipping, cutting etc.) and high tech (acrylic polymer clay and paint, digital scanning and image manipulation, archival Ultrachrome printing, etc.). People who have seen these objects cannot put their finger on what part of the world or time period they may be from, and I have not attempted to copy artifacts I might have seen from any particular culture or period. The only way that I can account for the nature of this 'evidence' is to say that it has simply emerged from some imaginal realm and era."
CHARLES WEBB
The images presented here are available in limited edition archival, Ultrachrome prints on paper and canvas in a variety of formats, sizes and prices. The original objects from which the images are derived are also available for exhibition and, in some cases, for sale. This presentation represents only a portion of the total body of work.

"Webb's show, appropriately entitled THE MOONDOG SHOW is a collection of alien-animalistic mask-like "artifacts" using bone, feathers and candy-colored horns. His creations are primitive yet futuristic like something from the post-Apocalypse."

THE SCREAM DRUM
"I was walking along the road with two friends. The sun set. I felt a tinge of melancholy. Suddenly the sky became a bloody red. I stopped, leaned against the railing, dead tired. And I looked at the flaming clouds that hung like blood and sword over the blue-black fjord and city. My friends walked on. I stood there, trembling with fright. And I felt a loud, unending scream piercing nature."
