FILM SYNOPSIS:
Through my form of “self-puppetry” I am exploring the identity of the artist and process of the art.. This video uses fabrics, figures and miniature sets, to create an enchanting operatic vision. Influenced by the work of Remedios Varo, assemblages of Hannah Hoch, the supernatural world of the Japanese Noh theater, and a fascination with puppets and dolls.
