Puppetry NOW ft. Tom Lee
By Tom Lee of Chicago, IL & New York City, NY
The Mirrored Pool is a solo mask and puppetry performance that presents two characters, a puppeteer and a puppet, who transform between perceived identities as lovers, rivals, and caretakers. It is performed in kuruma ningyō-style, Japanese cart puppetry.
Puppetry NOW
Puppetry NOW turns the museum’s focus to the art of our time and artists with limited representation in our historical collections.
Through an annual solo exhibition and collecting efforts, the initiative provides space and support to puppeteers and artists of color, while increasing the museum’s connection to the current state of puppetry.
