Christopher Lutter-Gardella

I am a sculptor and theater artist who believes that there is a deep-residing need for hands-on, kinesthetic creative work. Puppetry combines materials exploration, an engaging hand-crafting and invention component, and an intersection of movement, language and imaginative theatrical invention—all of which provides a holistic sensory and brain-development experience, as well as a broad appeal to a wide range of learning styles. I work predominately with waste materials and place a strong emphasis on the ecology of my waste-to-art process, teaching the science and the environmental intersections of the various materials used.
