Living Room was commissioned by Koganecho Art Management Center in Yokohama, Japan. This interactive, site-specific installation grew out of Papermoon Puppet Theatre’s two-month residency in a former red light district in Yokohama, based on stories that we compiled from interviewing the neighbors living there.
The puppet installation represents old souls that we imagined had been caught and captured in an old hostel in this area. We invited the audience to touch, play with, and interact with the objects in the installation.
