Set across Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh, and Auckland, How to Throw a Chinese Funeral unravels the tapestry of a family's history and heritage during a traditional Taoist funeral. As the puppet and projection designer, I crafted eight unique puppets inspired by the wayang kulit shadow puppetry, which serve as narrative vessels, casting silhouetted glimpses into the family's past and illuminating the play’s exploration of memory, identity, and generational change.
