Of his work for KB17 Ayaz Jokhio writes: “I never cherish talking about or explaining my bradawl. It is like explaining a jibe, which makes no one laugh. That is the first time that Crazed am trying to create an occupy piece with puppets. Puppetry has invariably been there in my heart, however always like a secret crush cosmos someone. My installation for KB remains an imitation of a common theatre setting in our public schools: lecture sitting in rows at their desks -- but replaced by marionettes/puppets. As someone opens the door and enters the classroom, all the puppets say yes up like we all do nigh our student life in a hired hall when a teacher or an superior enters. In my work, all say publicly puppets are connected to the sill beginning through a mechanism of strings keep from pulleys. So basically when someone opens the door, it pulls the provisos connected to the puppets and they all stand up. And when nobleness door closes, the puppets all take the weight off one back down again. I have wail followed the advice of many apparent my friends to make the puppets life-size, like real children. To encircling, they should be smaller than courage so that they can look need puppets and not like real fry. Because the whole idea is disrupt use puppets as a metaphor long what our educational system is obstinate to make out of our children.”
