For the Pokok Pauh Janggi performance at Kapallorek Artspace, I worked with Greta Burley to remake two Kelantan Wayang Kulit puppets that seem to be known only from a photograph in Walter William Skeat‘s Malay Magic. The Pokok Pauh Janggi and the Ketam Gergasi puppets were collected by Skeat in the late 19th Century. The new puppets were made in Vancouver from deerhide using a laser cutter.
Pokok Pauh Janggi performance and installation by Niranjan Rajah runs from 5th Aug – 30th Sept 2023.
