"Note From a Sheep I Met at the Dawn" - Maiko Kikuchi

What is the true boundary between dreams and reality? Is there a way to bring our daydreams to life?

Maiko Kikuchi has been studying this question for years through her theater, puppetry and installation practice. Her works are visible daydreams, the extension of a world inside her mind; “Note From a Sheep I Met at the Dawn” will take audiences through six vignettes where surrealistic worlds are created, inspired by diary-like narrations. Using props and ordinary materials, Kikuchi transforms a neutral space into an immersive installation of visible daydreams, inviting viewers to ponder the delicate boundary between reality and dreams.

An NYC based Japanese theater maker, performer, animator, and visual artist, Kikuchi’s work led her to puppetry for a way to more deeply interpret the surreal. Her puppets are at times arresting, giant faces that turn humans into magical others, clothed in everyday outfits or interacting with everyday objects. “A puppet is more than a prop,” she said. “When you manipulate them onstage, they become something more.”
