Doo-Cot

Founded in 1991 (until 2007), doo-cot was a collaboration between puppeteer Nenagh Watson and painter Rachael Field.

 

doo-cot produces self devised work in different media at different venues and with different collaborators. The artistic frission is the tension between shamanistic past and a technological future. We aim to encompass the qualities of simplicity and grandeur.

 

 

WHO IS IT?

Nenagh Watson has a background in sculpture and theatre with training in puppetry at the Institut de la Marionette, France. Here she worked with director Philippe Genty and the late visionary director and painter Tadeusz Kantor. Kantor's passion and poetry continue to inform Nenagh's work. The dynamic of the performer and the object is explored throughout her work.

 

Rachael Field trained in Fine Art and has exhibited her paintings in the UK and Germany. Field reanimates painte via computer animation and imaging, and her short films have been screened in small film festivals all over the world. Her work has been included in anthologies of lesbian and gay art and has been reproduced on postcards and book covers
