What is your favorite type of art to create?

Shadow Puppetry, a mixed medium of visual art, shadow movement, shadow puppets with improvised sounds capes and narratives is a type of art that tantalizing the senses. I came across this form back in 2006 when I joined Mind of a Snail in their living room on the Sunshine Coast, where they gave us 30 minutes to craft either A. A shadow puppet or shape B. Poetry or a narrative or C. Find an instrument to improvise on See more https://wildcraftplay.com/curating-cleaner-waters-production/

Where do you find inspiration?

Most of our inspiration comes from Earth and its inhabitants. We believe in melding technology and Earth to capture Earth's essence and ignite a sense of wonder and care for the Earth. They say a picture says a thousand words, well video, shadow movement, improvised narrative and sounds capes crafted in the moment generates lasting memories. It is in the moment that some of the best work is crafted, or some of the funniest, which is also medicine for the soul.

What would you do with $25,000?

We would publish this work to educate children in schools, to help find solutions in government to prevent waste from ending up on the Earth and in the waters. We would host shadow play workshops to help young people to curate their own works of stories, and maybe even change trash dumping behavior among all ages.
