The William Morris Choir Twins






At last I've dug out an old project which has been half-completed and staring me in the face for the past year now...the paper theatre Twins. Over a year ago I just really wanted to make some 2D children with long, flowing William Morris-fabric gowns on, like earthy wild flower children with the mysteries of the universe in their hearts....
At last I am attempting to do exactly that...to mount the two children onto upright panels and turn the entire surface into a kind of picture storytelling performance, with panels that rotate and little windows that reveal moving pictures, to tell a story without words. Rather like a huge, interactive snakes and ladders board, or treasure map.......
