How to Make a Doll at Brooklyn Art Haus

Digging through memory, medical text and a gigantic pile of socks, a picture of mental health in America emerges through the story of a mother-daughter relationship, the mystery of a changing brain and the question of how to communicate when words fall short. Where science meets art and humor meets grief, How to Make a Doll is an interdisciplinary solo blending research, memoir, and a healthy dose of absurdity. Through video, sound, text, and puppetry, this performance explores dementia, family, and the transformative power of making something by hand.
