ABOUT ABOUT

This is a Double Bill

 

Not My Grandmother’s Daughter,  by  Harley Walker

for ages 15+

Not My Grandmother’s Daughter is a new work that explores the relationship a young woman
has with her mother through the relationship she has with her grandmother. She interconnects
the history of their hands through generations with the help of shadow, sound, and paper
mache.


ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Harley is a first year Puppetry Arts MFA student. She is a puppeteer and storyteller who loves
creating waste averse puppets with found objects, paper mache and that cardboard box you
have stashed in your garage! She uses puppetry as a form of hands-on therapy and hopes she
can offer a little bit of that catharsis to others through her work.
