A piece I embroidered for our Missed Connections gallery show at LUCKY GALLERY. The opening reception for the show will be the same day of our Attracktion puppet performance, come check us out!

----------------

STRINGS ATTACHED will be performing a puppet show at Lucky Gallery called ATTRACKTION, a rumination on the Missed Connections listings on Craigslist that follows three narratives of individuals through the New York City subway system, as they spot and track objects of their desire. Missed Connections is a public forum where people can post a personal ad expressing a desire to reconnect with someone they saw in their daily travels. Featuring the journeys of a wayfaring minstrel, an imaginative but shy woman, and a helpful purple monster, the show takes the audience with our puppets on a rainy day train ride.

ATTRACKTION and STRINGS ATTACHED artist reception is a Lucky Sunday event on Sept 27 from 3:00 to 6:00pm. Puppet performance is at 3:30.

Laura Arena, owner of Lucky Gallery in Red Hook, wrote a cool bit about the puppet show and put it up on their site. Be sure to check out the opening reception, featuring our 2D work and puppet performance, as well as pieces by Hannah Kasper, and refreshments. A super awesome time will be had by all!
Also there were some very nice pages devoted to yours truly, Diana Ho, and Suzan Choy! Thanks Laura!
