Gordon and Darko have been creating together for 20 years as the Bucket List Collective. Their collaboration began on the eve of the Iraq war as they prepared an “army” of giant puppets that were very effectively utilized in the peace protests against the impending invasion of Iraq. Gordon Darral is an artist who produced his first puppet show when he was 10 years old; but his dog bit a member of the audience and his theatre was shut down. Trying to recover from this trauma, he has been building puppets every since, for Santa Claus parades, protest parades, dramatic productions, puppet groups and forgotten causes. Working with Darko is always interesting because he has several solutions for every challenge which leads us to create more possibilities. Darko Matovic PhD, P.Eng is an Assistant Professor on faculty at Queen’s University in the Engineering department. He teaches Mechanical and Materials with expertise in combustion and fluid dynamics. Darko is Chair of the Kingston Environmental Advisory Forum and is an Ontario Biochar Initiative board member.
