Sion Papi at Dyckman Farmhouse Museum

Dyckman Farmhouse Museum is proud to present

Sion Papi: A Stop Motion Animation and Art Exhibition by Anne Fernandez

Sion Papi is an animated documentary that follows the story of Anne Fernandez who, after the death of her father, embarks on a two-month journey to return his ashes to his homeland— a place she hasn’t set foot in for sixteen years. As she navigates this journey in an unfamiliar country, Anne begins to discover who her father was during the years he lived in Dominican Republic. 

Sion Papi unfolds as a personal essay in stop motion form— a tender tale of intergenerational storytelling, reconnection, and healing. The exhibition at the Dyckman Farmhouse Museum will feature a screening of Sion Papi alongside a glimpse into Anne Fernandez’s creative process in making the film.
