I was inspired and moved by the essential workers and healthcare workers during the Covid-19 pandemic. I felt compelled to do something to thank them/honor/represent them and create something to process what we were individually and collectively feeling/experiencing. This series of puppets was born from that impulse at the start of the pandemic. There will be sets I create for the puppets. It’s a work in progress.
