Bronze sculpture "Helter"
by Thomas Virnich, 2015
(180° turned)
I never had a chance.
Like a puppet on strings,
I fell into his trance.
He became my puppetmaster,
Upon my very first glance.

Although this art has been declared "Masterpiece of the oral and intangible heritage of humanity" by UNESCO, it now arouses more tourist interest than traditional interest and is almost in danger of extinction. The shows today are performed in Italian to the advantage of the few tourists who watch, fascinated by passionate struggles. Sicilians, on the other hand, prefer TV, internet and social media. It's a shame because the charm of puppetry should be kept alive. Being globalized is a better way to lose our identity. That sadness! Mr. Argento, master puppeteer and who you see in the background of the photo published yesterday, has his workshop in C.so V. Emanuele 443 in Palermo, a few steps from the Cathedral. Entering inside this treasure chest is like a journey through time, like being a child again. You wear shiny armor, full of colored feathers and live exciting adventures in mythical places rich in history. Faces, heads, hands, come to life in what remains of our childhood imagination. And if you ever enter I wish you a wonderful journey as eternal children.

I have been wanting to do this picture for so long. October had me in the mood for some dark and evil imagery...and while this isn't actually evil, it certainly is dark! This dress was made by a very talented artist, Anastasia Every, send from England :) I thought well, if I am going to hold a photo contest with the theme Supernatural, I might as well play the game!
I want to announce a new exhibition I have coming up in December. It is at the Annenberg Space for Photography in LA, and I've written a blog post all about it with pics from a documentary I shot with them for the show. Details here! :) The biggest shock of this show is that I get to exhibit with and meet Jerry Uelsmann and Maggie Taylor, who I have long admired as brilliant artists. I'm very excited!

He lets the puppets dance and brings joy with his violinist. There was also a reward for that.
All a fantastic weekend... Juli :-)
Puppet festival. [Explored]
The next town heading south from my home town is Stone.
In August they held the annual Puppet Festival, Mr Punch and his wife Judy plus Baby can be seen here in the bright costumes dancing in the High Street. Various puppeteers and their vintage puppets took place in the parade. There was also an old fashioned in-door circus, Punch and Judy show for the children and charity stalls plus market stalls selling all manor of vintage items. The Lord and Lady Mayoress of Stone can be seen just behind Judy.
Info on the history of Stone.
The town of Stone in Staffordshire is named after the sons of Wulhere, King of Mercia during the Saxon occupation of England in the seventh century.
The site where St Michael's Church in Stone now stands is thought to be the burial place of King Wulhere's sons, who were murdered by their father for converting to Christianity in 665 AD.
Wulfhere was a Pagan, but converted to Christianity in order to marry the daughter of the King of Kent.
He later converted back to Paganism, and demanded that his sons follow his lead.
Whilst out on a hunting trip the princes are said to have followed a white stag to St Chad's Church in Eccleshall, where they were blessed and baptised by Chad, then Bishop of Lichfield.
On hearing that his sons had betrayed him, he murdered them both with his own sword.
The princes were buried under a pile of stones, as was the Saxon tradition.
Wulfhere later repented, asked St Chad for forgiveness, and funded the building of a priory on the site where his sons were buried.
The town that built up around the priory became known as "Staines" and later, Stone.

Water puppetry – known in Vietnam as Múa rối nước, meaning ‘making puppets dance on water’ – is a Vietnamese tradition steeped in history, folklore and mystery. To this day, when visitors to Hanoi flock to the main theatre to experience the unusual art, it isn’t known how the little figures are mastered so seamlessly by hidden puppeteers.
The art dates back to the 11th century on the Red River Delta in northern Vietnam, when rice farmers began to craft their puppets and create shows to entertain their family and locals once the difficult harvest season had finished. They also believed the shows kept the naughty spirits distracted from any mischief making, which could harm their crops.
The farmers built pagodas above their rice paddies and held community festival shows there to show off their creations and well-practised puppeteering skills. It’s thought that the water aspect came in when large floods hit the rice paddies at Red River Delta and farmers adapted their conventional puppetry, operating the wooden figures from waist-deep water. Thus, the liquid stage – which hides the puppeteers, helps with acoustics and gives the show a mystical shimmer – was born.
