Our conversation with Anne Henley was recorded on December 22th, 2020. Anne is a Twin Cities Scenic Designer. She is a curious maker. Anne makes set designs for theater, musicals, dance, and opera. She also has made many puppets, pieces of touchable art, dance pieces, clothing mends, and protest signs. She also practices the art of a good demo for the (insert most any tool here) as a Fabrication Technician at the workshop at the College of Design at the University of MN, Twin Cities. Anne has had a meandering path and loves most whatever project she is currently working on. Right now it is a quilt for a new nibbling (hand stitching--highly recommend) and growing mycelium bricks for a possible EPS foam replacement (fungi does WHAT!?) in our workshop. She believes that making things with your hands encapsulates our humanity and why do anything else? She enjoys learning from Robin Wall Kimmerer and adrienne maree brown. Anne hopes we get to meet and work together someday.
