Puppetry
"Puppetry" by Kiki Smith is a limited edition work published by KIDO Press in Tokyo, consisting of thirteen signed, dated, and numbered prints in pencil, supplemented by eight artist's proofs. The work exemplifies Smith's engagement with themes of control, agency, and the human form, subjects that recur throughout her multidisciplinary practice spanning sculpture, printmaking, and drawing. As an unframed piece bearing the publisher's blindstamp, the work maintains an intimate scale characteristic of Smith's graphic works while preserving the materiality of the artist's hand through pencil notation.
