Puppetry

Understanding on object on stage is the subject of my art.

There are objects that speak and there are objects that are silent. Both are fascinating. Whatever expression a thing chooses, I am its partner and its witness.

I like to touch things. Every touch is touching. The kind of contact says more than many words.

The thing in my hand is feeling my breath. It is alive. If I recognize myself in it, I call it a puppet. I am asking the puppet in my hand: am I really you? The puppet’s answer is: am I really me?
