"It's impossible to cut the puppet master's strings when you don't even know you are the puppet"

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 Alfred Jarry’s surreal plays at the turn of the last century. In this show, Ubu is constantly dreaming, interacting 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, street lamps, umbrellas trees and graveyards, to name but a few.

 

We will then attach our puppets on thin vertical sticks, and wave them across the stage to bring them to life, with a projector over our heads projecting them onto the screen.

 

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 about ourselves.

A puppet on strings. This is really our life, controlled by strings and in the background a shadow trying to break out. This is how I am feeling from the jet lag.

 

Just back from our trip and will be posting more pictures as soon as we get over our jet lag. Glad to be back.

Saw this gorgeous puppet at the Museum.

Pinocchio Puppet hangs around with several other small wooden toys I have on my bookshelves. It is a souvenir I bought back from Italy years ago.

One of the puppeteers operating The Big Man - the largest puppet in Scotland. Taken with my phone and a telephoto lens. Fun, but always a little soft in places.

Chinese puppet shows featuring traditional folklores or literature classics are a popular form of past entertainment in Singapore. They are often performed in the streets and at temple festivals. The elaborate costumes are based on costumes worn by court officials of the Han, Tang, Song and Ming dynasties. It's a pity that these dramas are almost extinct now.

Flashes... Aplausos... Flores... Todos gritavam com vigor e euforia... Mas há algo de errado. Acordei em uma sala muito estranha, escura com teias de aranha e pó por todos os lados. Não consigo me mexer? O que está acontecendo? I-Isso são linhas? Meu corpo... Transformaram-me em algo que não pude identificar, tudo está diferente. Tentei levantar e andar, mas quando dei o primeiro passo escutei um ruído vindo de um dos cantos escuros da sala.

—Olá? Q-Quem está ai?— Só houve o silêncio como resposta. —Apareça! Estou mandando!

—Shii... Não fale alto... Ele pode estar nos ouvindo.

Quando retornei meu olhar para o canto vi uma boneca fazendo um sinal de silêncio. —O-Onde estou?

Perguntei em desespero.

—Por que estou aqui? Onde encontro a saída?

Ela me olhou se levantando e se aproximou respondendo.

—Não à saída. Nós não podemos sair irmã.

—I-Irmã? Não diga besteiras sou filha única. Não tenho irmã!

—Claro que somos irmãs, nós somos iguais não vê?

Ela me levou até um espelho que havia dentro da sala, quando avistei meu reflexo fiquei sem reação em estado de choque. Essa sou eu? Transformaram-me em uma marionete. UMA MARIONETE! Com o susto saltei para trás e cai no chão trincando uma das minhas pernas.

—Cuidado! Você deve tomar mais cuidado, não podemos cair de forma brusca no chão, pois somos de porcelana e quebramos com facilidade.

—E-Eu não sinto nada. Não sinto dor.

— Mas não sentimos dor irmã...

—NÃO ME CHAME ASSIM!

—Desculpe... Então como se chama?

—Eu me chamo...

—Não se lembra?

—Claro que lembro não seja idiota!

Meu nome? Qual é o meu nome? Eu não me lembro de quase nada. Após uns instantes tentando recordar o meu nome percebi que aquela boneca estava atrás de mim levantando o cabelo das minhas costas.

—Madison! Seu nome é Madison irmã... Perdão.

—Madison? Isso meu nome é Madison hahaha, como poderia esquecer.

—Eu me chamo Fiona, Muito prazer.

—Certamente. Mas onde é a saída?

—Não podemos sair nosso mestre não permite.

Após ela dizer isso a sala começou a tremer e uma mão gigantesca me pegou e me tirou dali para uma mesa gigantesca com agulhas, linhas e tecidos.

We all love it, from the traditional Punch and Judy Puppet Show to sophisticated London's Little Angel marionette theatre. This lovely brooch is a stage of a puppet theatre showing the most cherished children story "The Little Red Riding Hood".

 

Every single piece of the brooch was crafted and painted by myself. Each piece of one theme is therefore unique and slightly different to one another. The brooch is sealed with two coats of gloss varnish.

 

The size of the brooch is 30mm x 30mm

Model: Tallulah MM #321583

Camera: Canon 7D

Location: Personal Studio, Little Rock, AR

Lighting: softbox camera right, shoot through umbrella camera left

Postprocessing:Adobe Photoshop, Topaz Adjust

Puppets Horror?

This was taken at an antiques fair at La Bisbal d'Emporda. When on holiday in Spain, we normally spend Saturdays and Sundays foraging amongst the tat and junk of the local car boot sales.

This market was a cut above those with many quality items - most of which were way beyond our price range.

I just liked the fact that this very old Oriental puppet was propped up against a tree waiting for somebody to fall in love with him. I'm not sure anybody did.
