Through optically rich material manipulations Claire Webb fabricates objects of wonder and inquiry that examine knowledge, perception, discovery, and acquisition as components of the most fundamental human drives and desires. These materials, whether in their natural state, or engineered into new enigmatic forms, activate our curiosity and create poetic and transporting moments.
