[…] saw selling the puppets as the only way to move on to doing new work. Their latest production, Warhorse, would have been too big to tour, and fortunately, to their surprise, the Munich City Museum was […]

Hey :) Thanks Amy. It was lucky I can sculpt fast, as I ended up having to do two - the first got too soggy and fell off and smashed because the plaster we were using turned out to be old and didn’t set properly.

Comment on Penguin masks and earth hour by Hil

Yesterday our class finished in the afternoon, and I did another workshop and then saw another show, Diva, so yes, I can feel the overload building! Its kind of like feast and famine coming from fairly solitary work in quiet Canberra! Its really good, though, I’m loving it.

You know I hadn’t made that connection with the plague doctor masks, and its an arresting one. We should make more of it given a chance. I was asked to quote for a plague doctor mask a while ago, but the work didnt come through.

Hope you’re having a good time at the conference. Sounds fun and crazy, visually. I think I might be overwhelmed by the Extreme Visual Stimulation.

Wanted to comment on the penguin masks. You know what stuck me on first glance? Not the cute nature of penguins but a more forbidding association with those masks worn during the plague which I never quite understood (but admittedly I never looked into). They’re shown in the biopic about Nostradamus.

Kind of fitting, though, in a way…
