"In the spring of 1835, Barnum bought the rights to exhibit a frail enslaved African-American woman named Joice Heth. He plastered New York with posters advertising the old woman as George Washington's 161-year-old nursemaid. Though Heth had little choice in the matter, she played the part and the rouse worked. Barnum hoodwinked the press and thousands of others who paid 25¢ to see her." - 'Circus', S1E1, Netflix, 2018. By the time he reached New England, interest was dwindling, so Barnum made the radical decision to publically accuse himself of fraud through anonymous newspaper notices. These new adverts claimed Heth to an automaton composed of Indian rubber & mechanical springs... In other words, a robot. The genius of this trademark strategy was that Barnum now had cause to invite the public to the attraction in order to make up their own minds! 📆: Each Friday whilst the 🎪Circus of Horrors🎪 is here throughout June, a different historical 'Freak Show' performer will be profiled. As the first of her kind, Joice is not subject to these constraints... 📸: Poster, c.1835, via Wiki Commons. . #generallygothic #gothic #circusofhorrors #circus #thecircusisintown #circusisintown #bigtop #carnival #gothiccircus #circushistory #sideshow #circusperformers #circushistory #history #socialhistory #freaks #freakshow #joiceheth #publicitystunt #marketing #automaton #vintageposter #ptbarnum #barnumandbailey #barnumandbaileycircus #barnumsfreaks #robot #exploitation #circusdocumentary #netflix https://www.instagram.com/p/ByoyZ0jgMeB/?igshid=xo0i1airz96h

The discovery of a new character in my mind and his realisation in earthenware clay, February 2022 Thoughts documented as in February 2022 'I only know a bit about him and I’m looking forward to exploring what he leads me towards for his clothing design and the colours he might want etc. The ruff was close to impossible to make so of course shortly I’m going to make another as I don’t like things feeling impossible. So far this one is sitting drying out in the open kiln, the only place it feels safe. The jesters type collar shown in previous photos was broken by my husband, it was remade and then broken by my 3 year old, was remade and broken by me so I sat with my puppet for a while and asked him if he REALLY wanted that particular collar as I was getting tired of remaking it… he did so I then remade it again and put in the kiln. So far it is still in one piece. Wow the drama. I was sort of thinking the drama would start after my puppet was glaze fired but it’s started early. Last night I attached his arm in and was able to animate him by moving his arm up and down… then the collar got broken and this morning after the second collar was broken I thought better of trying to animate him again in his bone dry state to film as he is so fragile and I’m afraid of more breaks. The little film will have to wait until he is fired. I love how his shadow is a big part of the drama on the white pottery wall…makes me think of shadow puppets and how I can involve this element in my work.'

CIRCUS OF HORRORS: PARR HALL, WARRINGTON
I've seen Circus of Horrors three times now, its my 2nd time photographing them, last time was in 2014. I didn't think they had added much since and to be honest just how many swords can one man swallow. However, It's always fun and there are some shockingly crazy stunts, like a nail being hammered through a tongue and sword swallowing. We didn't see any nudity this time or any small people dragging his bollocks around with a Henry Hoover - thankfully. There were just 2 photographers, I was shooting at the sides and the centre at the rear. I love the more burlesque elements of the show, like the acrobatics, and the fire eating, the glamour and the beauty. The evil clowns don't do it for me I'm afraid.

This guy ate a #sword, which is crazy cool. I really enjoyed the #circusofhorrors. It was a lot of fun! Although seeing a guy open a bottle of beer with his eyes, after eating a light bulb cannot be unseen!! #circusofhorrors #circus #horror #goth #gothic #whitby #wgw #whitbygothweekend
