A Visit To The Bread and Puppet Museum

There is much to be said about company, and nothing could be better than fun company. Resident artists having a break and some fun at the bread and puppet museum.

Bread & Puppet


Visited the bread and puppet museum (often known simply as Bread & Puppet) a politically radical puppet theater, active since the 1960s. Founded in 1962–1963 in New York City. It was active during the Vietnam War in anti-war protests, primarily in New York. 

It is often remembered as a central part of the political spectacle of the time, as its enormous puppets (often ten to fifteen feet tall) were a fixture of many demonstrations. In 1970 the Theater moved to Vermont, first to Goddard College in Plainfield, and then to a farm in Glover where it still resides.

Meet Me In St. Albans

Scenes from a trip while I was on break from the studio. Residencies are educational in an organic way. We learn new ways of creating that is expansive. I take pictures of places I visit to remind me of our connectedness than separation.

When It Rains.............

It is said that when it rains, it pours but this place transforms completely from sunlit reds and yellows and green lawns to a grey that just wants one huddled inside.

Days

What are days for?
Days are where we live.
They come; they wake us
Time and time over.
They are to be happy in:
Where can we live but days?

Ah, solving that question
Brings the priest and the doctor
In their long coats
Running over the fields.

-Phillip Larkin

Took a break from the studio for a walk look at the sun showing off. I am currently an artist in residence at the Vermont Studio Centre in Johnson, Vermont, courtesy of the Robert Sterling Clark fellowship.
