PAPER PUPPET BAND

When I thought to myself when the last time was I had cut out paper shapes and glued them together (that wasn’t work related), I realised that is something most of us do only when you are kids. As adults we don’t cut paper for fun anymore. So I created this piece where it recreated that opportunity. This piece stimulates interactivity and tactility, making the print more than something you can hang on the wall but also something to play with.

On the left you can see the original puppets I made, hand painted with gouache. Down below you can see the Puppet Band assembly prints for people to cut out and assemble themselves. These prints are sold with brass rivets included.
