EXQUISITE STORIES
THE HEAD, THE BODY, THE BOTTOM BIT.
The Beginning, The Middle, The End.
Exquisite corpse was a game played by surrealists in the 1920s and it is a great device for collaboration and lateral thinking 100 years later. Playable Streets uses this game as a leaping off point to create an interactive installation that allows the public to use the drawings of children to create new characters and new stories! Through a series of workshops we explore the amazing depths of children's imagination.
