Who is Syd?

Picture
Syd describes himself as “a brick puppeteer performance artist for solo shows.”   This means that he has developed a creative practice in which he uses bricks as puppets in intimate two-hour performances, for only a sole audience member - that’s right, one person, in the audience.  

“The intimacy,” he claims “is vital for the stories I tell.” 



 

Picture
And despite his grand plans, he has yet to attract attention for his shows.  So, in order to earn his share for rent and supplies like bricks, costumes, and jewelry (he wears the costumes and jewelry, the puppets always perform nude), he works at a local fast food hamburger chain.  

He claims he “doesn’t enjoy working with meat” but does what he has to to bring in some cash.
