During his residency at Surel’s Place, Karl Erickson will be creating a series of puppet-sculptures and experimental animations about waste along the Boise River Greenbelt. Join him and other members of the Surel’s Place community as we participate in the Idaho Rivers United River Cleanup to collect trash on the shores of the river for Karl to use as the source for his creations. He will then assemble these objects into puppet-like figures and digitize them using a 3D scanning processes. These digital “trash-puppets” will sing, dance, and tell stories of their unexpected journeys along the river, personifying the entanglements that bring human-generated material into contact with the more-than-human.
