Take a Seat on The Red Eye

Robin Hillary McCahill

"Take a Seat on The Red Eye" was conceived after several other ideas changed their mind and pushed me towards the creation of a chair made from found and re-purposed objects (as the chairs are built from re-cycled pallets). I knew I had to articulate my chair. And, since I am obsessed with birds and aeroplanes, my chair decided to become a conglomerate of owl and winged flight. When you sit in the chair you can pull back on the lever and up pop the wings and you are off on an adventure with flying aces and birds soaring amidst the clouds. Enjoy your flight on The Red Eye.

My involvement with puppetry commenced with a sculpture that became alive. I have a background in art and mechanics. So naturally I liked making things move. The realization that one could breathe life into an object with movement and intention totally hooked me. The word "audition" terrified me. But if one is to build puppets one needs an audience. I tend to build puppets that interact with people and often animals. Experiencing folk suspending reality and communicating with the puppets is a joy.
