OBJECT_DESCRIPTION_EN :

This puppet, which has all the characteristics of a human figure, represents a child and innocence in a show that deals with questions of existence and the search for identity.

Its body, with anthropomorphic joints, allows for effective manipulation by two puppeteers. This type of manipulation allows for a range of movements and expressions, contributing to the narrative and thematic depth of the show. The manipulation of the puppet requires skill and coordination on the part of the puppeteers in order to accurately portray the character's emotions and experiences, which in turn requires a deep understanding of the story and underlying messages.

In this symbolic universe, children are born with a tulip on their head, symbolizing purity and innocence. As the narrative unfolds, the child character travels through various potentially disturbing universes, reflecting the harsh realities that many individuals face. This symbolic journey of the character illustrates the complex and often disenchanted nature of existence and the search for meaning.

The use of a puppet in this type of show allows for a unique blend of visual storytelling and abstract representation, providing a medium through which profound ideas can be communicated to an audience in an engaging way that is coherent with the show's narrative.
