magical toys always for all children
and I grew with stop motion animated puppetry, sesame street, the lonely goatherd
but a little scary too with a sinister undertone, just a little chill in the spine
Pinocchio, Punch and Judy
The fixed smiles
The ventriloquist's dummy
and now I'm a grown up, Angela Carter's The Loves of Lady Purple
Oh how I love Suzie Templeton's Peter and The Wolf
Kara Walker
and the shadow puppets here (even if the music is a little mollasson compared to Prokofiev)
I feel ideas forming...
(All of these taken at MiMa Festival des Arts de la Marionette)
Mamiya DSX500/Fujifilm 200 (while my Spotmatic is in hospital)
and yes, ok I have been fiddling with my blog again...
