    Little Redhat

A first draft of an upcoming Installation that will presented in its entirety (as soon as I get it right). Redhat is a pop-up book that has multiple layers of meaning, all of which address the cautionary tale of Red Hat— a tale about the dangers of child predators. Multiple layers are needed to communicate this message- the tale itself, visual representation, and sub[text].

I used the actual words of convicted pedophile John Clark Donahue (former Artistic Director of the Children's Theater Company) to emphasize and make real the wolf/orgre of the tale.
All supplemental text was taken from depositions and court documents of John Clark Donahue as well as interviews with 17 of his former victims.

The final piece will be printed on canvas 12’ x 6’ and hung so as to surround the reader. A video componant is also currently being developed.
