Hi, I’m Saya, and I create puppets that are inspired by nature. My puppets are designed to bring the beauty of the natural world to life, whether for the stage or outdoor street theatre. With experience working alongside some of the UK’s leading theatre companies, including Northern Stage, Moving Parts Arts, and Thingumajig Theatre, I’ve had the pleasure of designing puppets that not only capture attention but also tell compelling, emotional stories. From intricate, hand-crafted table-top puppets to large-scale outdoor spectacles, I strive to create pieces that will leave a lasting impression.
We loved the way that you understood the aesthetic of our work and that went a long way in understanding the life of the puppet. Your designs captured the essence of our strong-willed, nature loving Ella perfectly and paid homage to the mother with great grace and artistry.
Saya is a powerful instinctive generous creator. She is a one of a kind human being with great sensitivity to her craft as well as the humans in the team. Her versatility, questioning, creative talent brought fabulous contributions.
