Hip Hop Puppet Party

Hip Hop Puppet Party is an installation of 5 double-sided, freestanding puppet heads in front of a wall of 100 colorful faces. The puppet faces, which stand 6 to 8 feet tall, are mixed-media collage on paper and nearly 5 times larger than a human face. The puppet mechanisms are made of sheets of pink insulation foam, steel pipes, and rubber bands. The bases are painted wood. The colorful faces in the background are drawn with silicone caulk on sheets of cardboard, all covered with paint.
