Bryony Anderson’s puppets and constructions for visual performance have toured nationally and internationally with many Australian performance, puppetry, circus and theatre companies, as well as appearing in museums, festivals and films. Solo exhibitions have ranged from interactive puppetry installations and handmade projection machinery to intricate illustration, all investigating the potential in salvaged materials. She has led over 100 workshops in urban, rural, and desert communities, devised large scale participatory projects and mentored emerging makers from around Australia.

 Working from a solar-powered shed in Pappinbarra, she established One Off Makery in 2011 and began working with community to create high calibre, locally relevant work from frugal resources. Pappinbarra locals created the Salvage Spider:  from this Frugal Arts Inc and the award-winning Frugal Forest Project grew, involving participants across the Mid North Coast over three years in its creation and touring NSW. Stringdom took a single material – baling twine collected from dairy farms – and ran with it in a series of participatory events.
