Understanding Joshua

I don’t think any other artist has captured the vulnerability, or self-loathing of the male sex more accurately than Charlie White‘s Understanding Joshua series.

Check out his segment on PBS’s art series, EGG.

I’ve found a few more images from the collection:

There’s Cocktail Party,

Fantasy,

Getting Lindsay Linton,

Her Place,

Ken’s Basement,

and something whose title remains unknown to me.  (NSFW)

    Actually, I think you just conjoured a bigger horror with the thought of Jim Henson having anything to do with Joshua.

    This is really creeping me out.

  4. I like it.  I don’t completely get it, but I like it.

    That last picture is called “Sherri’s Living Room”

  7. insomniaSAH says:

    Man! Had no idea what these pictures were from, I kept running into them, thanks.

    I’d never seen that last one – the rest freak me out, but that last one made me feel bad for the little guy. I had the feeling the scene had something to do with an inability to perform <:/

  8. [...] is from artist Charlie White’s series Understanding Joshua, which apparently is all about “the vulnerability and self-loathing of the male sex”. [...]
