Full detail of commissioned FFXI puppet.
Puppet stands about 58cm from top of hat to toes. Sculpted using paperclay over wire and foam base. Red silk hat and sleeves, cotton pants and tooled leather details.
Main shirt and all gold details save cuffs are tooled leather. Cuffs are paperclay solid. Tassel on back of hat is spun wool with hand dyed red tip.
He also has a glow in the dark string harness to keep him suspended [though without it, he stands on his own as you can see] which was not pictured.
This random assortment of finger puppets was given to us by a customer at work. They are so ridiculous and cute that we have kept them propped on our office door for a few years.
The customer that gave them to us had a bagful of them. He was bizarre. A socially awkward lawyer trying to woo his baristas with finger puppets. Not creepy.

This puppeteer is amazing, he can do anything with this puppet, I have posted photos of the John Paul before, but never the puppet. Here he is "climbing" up the the kid with his hands in his pockets (?) and when he get level with his face he knocks the kids hat off :-)

As an artist I work primarily to transform found and recycled objects into puppets and small theatre like settings that recall ancient mythology and folktales. The Janus headed puppet takes its concept from classical mythology and was created for a stop motion film and as a device to frame shots through its open box torso. The puppet is made from many materials such as found turtle bones, an old watch case, a spoon, almond shells and butterfly wings encased in mica. Papier-mache pulp forms the dual faces and copper wire binds the varied parts into cohesive and bendable limbs.

I know, I know, it's a character from Baby Einsteins, but...it's a dolphin! How could I refuse? ^^
Another yard sale find.
Youth Services librarians Carolyn and Gudrun took puppet shows on the road to East Prairie School in Skokie. Puppet shows are offered through Classroom Connections, one of many library resources for Skokie's K-8 teachers.
The ‘Puppet show’ poses questions to the extent that the fashion industry controls how women present themselves. Within this series i have posed women as rag doll puppets, demonstrating control in a physical sense by the use of rope, controlling the models movements. The operator controlling the models from above gives the sense that the controller is much greater and powerful than these women. The controller is at the top of the industry leaving the women at the bottom to do as they are told. Alternatively, the controller could be seen as the dominant male, in that women want to look and feel attractive to please the opposite sex in order to feel acceptance within society. This suggests that men control women merely by their presence, but also that woman are allowing themselves to be controlled.
I have deliberately dressed the women in ‘The Puppet Show’ almost identically, using skirts that are made out of the same material but made by different designers. Every major fashion label claims to be different, however my image is suggesting that the fashions at one particular time, as well as the models presented, are limited and actually very repetitive. This also explores the way women look at other women and aspire to be just like them to the point we are all clones of one another; just like dolls.
