Puppet Show” – DIGITAL COLOR SERIES
These images portray a world hung on strings, figures pulled in different directions by a seemingly invisible hand, de-saturated to appear unreal. The stage is the frame from which we look into, or the frame shows ownership of the figures within it. In this series of work a figure, or rather a human doll is put on display in a world “controlled” and examined by a probing puppeteer. The hand is the master and the world is set upon a stage for all to see. Figures put on a show within the confines of the dimension created by others; their true reflection being that of a human doll. Found images were then used for the purpose of explaining the world as premade and we, the figures, are merely a “doll” to dance around within it.

The daughter of a friend is doing a business project at school that ended up with the making and creating a marketing plan for this puppet. She is doing a slide show presentation today to three judges and the cookies are a thankyou gift at the end. I know all will go well she is a clever cookie lol!
Later in the next month she is doing a stall where we intedn to have these cookies on a sticks/cookie pops to have as giveaways and to liven up the display. Its been a pleasure to help out hardworking people.
I made a cutter for these as i have potentially a few to do and the design was based more on a caricature drawn of the puppet
Puppet child Cendhikia Ishmatuka Srihascryasmoro (7) performs with a traditional shadow puppet in Solo. Indonesia's shadow puppetry performances are steeped in tradition, Shadow puppetry, or wayang, has been drawing crowds for over half a millennium with its distinctly Indonesian music, intricately carved protagonists, riot of colour and plots based on ancient fables with their moral messages or stories from religious texts such as the Ramayana
Wayang Kulit in Central Java Indonesia is probably one of the oldest continuous traditions of storytelling in the world, and certainly among the most highly developed, The wayang is a flat or round puppets used for shows in Java.The wayang kulit is the flat one and it is made with buffalo leather. They are maipulated behind a white screen with a back light, so the attendance can see them as shadow puppets. The puppets are stored in line, in a banana tree trunk, behind the screen and in front of the puppeter.
The puppeter is called the dalang.

Mark ‘Spoonman’ Petrakis and I are developing a shadow puppet show we call ‘Ubu’s Dreams’.
This short series of sketches stars Père Ubu, the hero of french poet Alfred Jarry’s surreal plays. In this show, Ubu is constantly dreaming, playing with archetypal characters from our collective unconscious.
For this project, we are creating a variety of wooden figures with a laser cutter: big faces, music notes, dancers, trees and graveyards, to name but a few. We then tape our puppets on wooden sticks, and wave them across the stage to bring them to life, with a projector over our heads.
We plan to continue this experiment through the summer and perform a first puppet show during our Dada exhibit at the Canessa Gallery in North Beach, from Nov. 3 to 12, 2016.
I also plan to use some of these techniques with our lower and middle school students, for the Maker Art courses I will be teaching this fall.
From shadow puppets to poetic robots, these interactive storytelling experiments have the potential to engage us at a deeper level and help us learn more about ourselves.

Silkscreened posters for puppet shows in Philadelphia, Providence and Chicago, 2000 to 2005. Posters pictured here include the work of the Insurrection Landscapers (top left), Frank Maugery (right of top left), Jo Dery (top two right), Lief Goldberg (mid-right), Morgão (mid-left and center), and Bob Kamzelski (bottom row).
These posters were part of the show OUR EYES NEED ART on Baltimore Avenue in West Philadelphia. They serve as a document of an underground puppetry arts movement that has been largely undocumented. Philadelphia has become a nexus for this movement largely because of Puppet Uprising, an organization that hosts performance events for local and touring puppeteers in Philadelphia. The bottom row of silkscreen posters are from some of Puppet Uprising's early cabarets at the CEC, Calvary Church, and the Rotunda in West Philly.

Introducing Thai Theatrical Puppetry
The thratrical puppetry is unique smong the various forms of puppetry in that each puppet
represents a character taken from the traditional Thai theater. There are three types of
traditional Thai theatrical performances, all of which are stylized, with dancing, singing and music
comparable in complexity with the European opera-ballet of the 18th century French royal
court at Versailles. The most sophisticated od these is khon, which performs only the ramakian
(the Thai versoin of the Indian epic, Ramayana); the less ssophisticated is lakhon, performs all
other classics of Thai drama; and the least sophisticated is likey, which performs common
drames, Thai theatrical puppetry is also unique in that each puppet requires the synchronised
efforts of three puppeteers is its manipulation, all of whom appear on stage with the puppet
and each of whom is khon, lakhon or likay performer in his or her own right. The puppets, in
short, perform khon, lakhon or likay on stage with the puppeteers, where the name 'theatrical
puppetry'.
The Traditional Thai Puppet Theater Company is the authoritative guardian of this dying art
form: the directors and senior members of the troupe are direct artistic seccessors of the
founder of Thai theatrical puppetry. Performances are as unique as they are authentic
Performance at the Traditional Thai Puppet Theater are s showcase for Thailand 's cultural
heritage and reflect the undtinting efforts of the troupe to preserve and perpetuate this exotic art form.
