The Winter Wonderland Theater Box is an interactive space to experience the magic of a winter forest. The sliding curtain represents the shrubs and flora of the forest as a door to another realm. Inspired by various forms of theatrical storytelling, including Japanese kamishibai, puppet theater, and tunnel diorama. 

All fabric pieces are woven on an eight harness floor loom and attached to a hand-crafted theater box.
