Wood Sprite, short film

Wood Sprite, short film

Project Wood Sprite:

The short film Wood Sprite utilises video and stop-motion, as well as performing techniques from marionette to shadow puppetry and life-size, embodied puppets. The objects crafted for the project involve fabrication processes using wood, textiles, and paper. All processes were realised and connected through a holistic approach by the artist herself.

In the form of a tale, Wood Sprite depicts the origin journey of a wooden puppet to the forest. The sentient woods absorb this being into the night, allowing her and the puppeteer, in a mirroring game, into a realm of dissolution of all forms, matter and spirit. This film honours the union of nature and culture, and the porosity attuning human and more-than-human creatures, at a time where the stillness of the theatre stage forces us to enquire outwards – or, truly, inwards.

Lonsdale & Dutch stamp

This stamp was commissioned and paid for by GSA so that any of the Mackintosh Library Lights made post 2014 that contained one or more newly crafted piece would be stamped with the L&D stamp, to indicate its whole or partial newness.

In the event:
• 27 Library lights are made wholly from original parts (and not therefore stamped)
• 11 are made from some original and some new parts (therefore stamped)
• 15 are made entirely from new parts (therefore stamped)

Wooden stool

Small wooden stool in arts and crafts style, with cut out motif in the style of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. At one time there were many examples in use within The Glasgow School of Art, but very few remain.

"Kitten" mascot

A small fabric soft "kitten" mascot.

Lviv National Academy of the Arts has been a hub for displaced staff and students since the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Volunteers have been making camouflage nets for the front line. But alongside this they have also been making small toys/mascots for the soldiers from the leftover camouflage fabric. The Ukrainian soldiers are affectionately called “Our Kittens”, their Kittens fighting for Ukraine.

This "kitten" was gifted to GSA's Archives and Collections staff as a token of thanks from colleagues in the Lviv National Academy of the Arts. GSA Archives and Collections staff mentored LNAA staff through a digitisation project in 2023, as part of the funded project "Developing and Promoting Sustainable Cultural Heritage in Disaster Contexts" which was part of GSA's ongoing twinning with Lviv National Academy of the Arts. GSA's Archives and Collections staff were told that we here at GSA are also LNAA's "kittens", fighting to protect the heritage of LNAA and Ukraine.
