In (In)/Animate Objects, a mountain of decaying rag dolls towers to the ceiling, upon which their maker, the grandmother, presides from the throne of her wingback chair. (In)/Animate Objects – my installation for the COLA Fellowship exhibition was the second half of a diptych. Its companion, Object of Her Affection is a puppetry performance focused on a woman, who in her search for true love develops intimate relationships with inanimate objects.
