Guess who made a reel! You have to guess who it was!
Viewing it on a phone is small and unpleasant, so as always go check out my website for all of my puppet business :)
Hello Darling Community! In exactly one month I will be getting top surgery, and Im raising funds to help cover post-op costs! Wow! Ill be out of work for six(ish) weeks (no puppeting or electrician time allowed- doctors orders), so anything helps! Link in my bio and in the comments.
Thank you so much to those of you who have already donated- I really cannot express how grateful I am. Ive had such an outpouring of support already it really means the world. I love you all dearly- thank you thank you. Anyway! Share this around and such! Xoxoxo!
Get to know the artists of our Winter Workspace residency.
Camille Cooper (@camelcooper ), Bel Falleiros (@bel.falleiros ), and Mark Dorf (@mrkdorf ) are each drawing inspiration from our grounds and engaging with the landscape in different ways through their distinct practices.
Join us for our first Drop-In Sundays event on March 22 to meet the Session 2 artists, visit their studios, and take part in an informal conversation about their work and process.
Mayflies belong to the order Ephemeroptera in reference to their fleeting adult life span.......
I'm making more bugs out of transgender ephemera at Wave Hill! Stay tuned for more of this! Creepy crawly! Yay fellowship!
Excited to work with Tarik Jeremiah Brown and Camille Cooper, 2026 Van Lier Fellows at Wave Hill! Tarik and Camille will participate in Session 2 of the 2026 Winter Workspace Residency, and exhibit new work as part of the 2026 Sunroom Project Space season.
CONGRATULATIONS @tarikjeremiah and @camelcooper !!
Tarik Jeremiah Brown is a NY–based artist from Chicago. Working across time-based media to interrogate the resonances and tensions that surface when the past, present, and futures of the Black diaspora fold into one another, his outcomes often emerge through analog film practices, collage, sculpture, and digital image-making. At Wave Hill, Brown will engage sites of refuge and worship rooted in Black American antebellum history to explore topics related to storms, protection, elevation, and concealment.
Camille Cooper is a NY–based puppeteer, multidisciplinary artist, and self-identified transsexual from northern New Mexico. Cooper will use his time at Wave Hill to continue a project that explores the relationship between the historic treatment of trans people and insects through performance and sculptures made from transgender ephemera. This project, titled SHOWPIECE, utilizes a series of insect puppets made from the packaging of his hormone replacement therapy, the aesthetic language of mid-20th century big bug horror films, and the metaphor of entomological study to highlight the ways in which gender variant people are scrutinized by hegemonic society.

C'est quoi??
Charleville- saw more puppet excellence than I could have ever imagined and had the joy of performing with the dreamiest team
Paris- brilliant time with my brilliant lover
Thanks France, that was so lovely!
Happy World Puppetry Day to all those who celebrate! As always, this is an excellent excuse to post photos of all of the wonderful projects I have gotten to be a part of. But, most importantly, to express my immense gratitude for this wild and wonderful community. So many people have pulled me in and held me tight, and I can barely articulate how much it means to me! Thank you all so big big much, and here's to more puppet freakishness. Xoxoxoox

That's Emma! Its our anniversary! And I am so lucky for every single one of the 157680000-ish seconds we have spent together (that's five entire years!). There is nobody else on the planet I'd rather dance in the frozen section with. Love you immeasurably. Xoxoxox
