by Deloss Webber Bento Series beach stones, rattan, slate “Deloss Webber’s art is influenced by eastern philosophies - wood furniture by Nakashima, the sculptural fluidity of Noguchi and the simple yet complex ceramic sculpture by Kaneko are referenced in these sculpture’s. The energy is transcendent of the physical structure - stone, fiber, and wood rise above the earthly elements that comprise their visual presence. Del’s reverence for nature takes shape as varying types of stones are wrapped in fiber - rattan, bamboo, cane or reed. The melding of contemporary weaving techniques in concomitance with classic Japanese knotting styles gives Del’s sculpture a unique appearance. Scale, texture, color and form develop as the process unfolds.”

Anasazi/MAnasazi/Mogollon Tularosa Black-on-White Olla

Three pairs of hinged bracelets (26.8.125–.130) are associated with the tomb of three foreign wives of Thutmose III. They are all made of burnished gold inlaid with carnelian and glass that was originally turquoise and dark blue, but has faded. Each is inscribed on the inner surface with the cartouches and epithets of Thutmose III suggesting that they were a gift of the king.
More beautiful repair.
