Chicago Puppet Fest presents:
Exhibitions: Two Ways Down and Giant Puppet Lanterns
Exhibitions at The Puppet Hub
“Two Ways Down” by Laura Heit
An immersive shadow puppet and hand-drawn animated installation, by visiting puppet artist Laura Heit. Taking inspiration from the Hieronymus Bosch work, Garden of Earthly Delights, this fantastical piece reflects on the momentary nature of life using thrown shadows from tabletop dioramas and reflected and refracted animated projections to create a fleeting world where human-animal hybrids, specters, and body parts morph and flit across the walls.
Giant Puppet Lanterns from Andrew Kim Workshop
Look for a room full of giant lantern puppets created in the pre-festival workshop with Andrew Kim of Thingamujig.
