Born to Folk Art

The title of this piece is “Born to Folk Art” and is composed of two marionettes. This piece is for a show in Brooklyn, New York at Bottleneck Gallery. The name of the exhibit is “More than You Imagined: Art Inspired by Premium Cable TV”.

From start to finish it took me about two and a half months to make these little guys. With this set of marionettes I tried to design them to be more “theatre ready” as opposed to just simple “art puppets.” And by “theatre ready”, I mean that they have a better range of movement and articulation than previous designs.

If you are in New York in mid-late September, stop by Bottleneck Gallery and check out the show.

“Bad Dads II” Exhibit Submission

My first Word Press post! Hizzah!

I’m going to San Francisco next weekend for the second annual Bad Dads Exhibit, which is an art show tribute to Wes Anderson’s films. Here is a link to some footage from last year’s show! http://vimeo.com/16387278

For this show I’ve entered some marionettes of Margot Tennenbaum and Mordecai.
