The GUBU SAGA Installation is a novel using physical objects instead of words. It is about 20 square meters and contains around 600 dolls in jars, arranged in a progression of 60 diorama type sections, forming a readable story. The plot concerns The Narrator, a fictional character, instructed to build a shrine in memory of his people. Being a novel, the Saga is constructed using literary ideas and a ‘character art’, in which the artist gets into the character of The Narrator, using the materials and ideas available to him, given the fictional time and place.
