Webster utilizes a hybrid sketching-sculpting process to create landscape paintings that highlight our complex, often destructive, relationship with nature. For the last decade, Webster's practice has centered on fantastical scenery, constructed first as sculptures in virtual reality, and then painted as dramatic vistas. At Art Basel Miami Beach, Webster unveils a series inspired by rapturous phenomena, conflating terror and awe, amidst unknown climates. Currents of fluid, release valves for atmospheric spirit, and knots in ominous skies function as abstractions, interrogating nature as a fundamental expression of will: human, divine, other.
