Child of Wood at the Center for Puppetry Arts features work by Tom Lee, exploring the intersection of storytelling, craft, and performance through puppetry. The exhibition highlights how puppets function not only as theatrical tools but also as sculptural objects that carry narrative, emotion, and cultural meaning.

Through detailed construction, material experimentation, and expressive form, Lee’s work reveals the artistry behind puppet design and fabrication. The exhibition emphasizes how movement, character, and visual language come together to create immersive storytelling experiences.

By focusing on the material and conceptual aspects of puppetry, Child of Wood invites viewers to consider how objects can embody narrative and how craft traditions continue to evolve within contemporary practice.
