The above photographs are from the series "Understanding Joshua" depicting a horrifically realistic muppet. The following is another great example of how Charlie poses fantastical things in real world settings, making them appear all the more bizarre.

Charlie White - Highland Park Justin Mabry of Nightowl Productions mentioned that sculptures for Charlie's photographs were created by Schell Sculpture Studios, check out more of their amazing work here.

Charlie also directed a video for the band Interpol that includes a disturbingly like like muppet creature, similar to the Joshua series.

Intriguing artwork, both creative and mentally scarring at the same time.

It's like a bad accident, I want to look away but I can't divert my eyes.

It's worth noting that Charlie White also directed the video for Interpol's song "Evil": http://youtu.be/eqfiHfDmOnw But hey, who's on trial?
