Thathanka Iyotake Art Marionette

Supreme Siamese Shaman (Sitting Bull) was a Hunkpapa Lakota leader who led his people during years of resistance against United States government policies.  He is famous for defeating Custer at the Battle of Little Bighorn.  He was killed by Indian agency police on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation during an attempt to arrest him, at a time when authorities feared that he would join the Ghost Dance movement.  This great warrior is given a spiritual otherworldly treatment in his hand carving and hand painting.  A favourite of ours joins this great new collection Might is Right.

Sitting bull truly was a great spiritual leader and warrior brave.  The raw application of paint for his costume gives you the feeling that he will attack at any time, brandishing his ax with skeletonized features his spirit screams to you.  As well as being a little frightening he also holds all the history and suffering of his people and has a charisma that we are sure you would love to have in your home.  With great movement, this marionette is a semi-professional performer.  But he is a star of this warrior collection!!

My marionette-making workshop was the most fun I had during my visit to Prague! Everyone at Czech Marionettes was incredibly welcoming and encouraging. Lucy helped me to put the puppet together while another artist helped me to mix the paint. I love how it turned out! I wanted to do something different yet quintessentially Czech while I was here and this was the perfect choice! If you like arts and crafts and friendly people, you’ll enjoy this workshop. Sadly marionette theater performances are disappearing from Prague. But the talented people who carry on the traditions and artistic crafts are still here and they will gladly introduce you to this wonderful tradition.

Amazing! This little fellow is crafted with skill, love, and whimsy. I have several of the marionettes and each and everyone is a work of art. Can’t recommend enough; adore!
