Rites, Observances, and Sacraments

“Who are the artists who will dream the new mythologies into world? Mythologies which address the people of today are desperately needed” Joseph Campbell.

In 2009 Adrain Chesser and Timothy White Eagle began a unique and ongoing project. Using symbols, allegory, personal and world histories, Chesser and White Eagle craft images which contained the conveyance of healing, evolution and Spirit itself.

The subject matter rises out of personal and community need. The images are sometime a frozen moment within the landscape of a given ritual. Other narrative vignettes craft a kind of alternate realm where the medicine is seen or called into exsistance within the frame. Portraits become a kind of personal prayer, in the eye of the sitters we can find exorcism and enlightenment.
