Geppetta

Queer Fabulist,  Puppeteer, Art Educator

…embracing melancholy with magical…

performing ‘The Neck Hater’ from Hear Them Howling: Surreal Fables and Mental Health Survival

“reflective and imaginative…an intimate moving experience”                                      - New Haven Pride Center

Amid cups of tea, mounds of fabric and thread, piles of cardboard, and altars of found objects, Geppetta fervently builds tiny heads and arms, sculpts mystical creatures, paints imaginary, yet nostalgic landscapes, and collects piles of rusty found objects. What crawls from the wreckage become twisted tales, whimsical puppet theater, and story-punk melodies described as “mournful but ingenious” with delightful twists and turns.

Inspired by classic fables and myths, occult symbolism, street art, and surrealism infused with a pension for social/ environmental activism and transfeminist sensibilities, Geppetta presents art/performance as a cryptic, yet politically aware language that is imaginative and enlightening.

Geppetta has been featured with the Tranny Roadshow, the Femme Show, and Puppet Uprising, and featured visual work with Fresh Meat Productions Defying Gravities and Critical Views through Red Sun Press among others. She is a principle artist and organizer for the upcoming Trans Fusions National Tour.

Additionally, she teaches art and social workshops at schools and universities across the country.
