Exquisite Corpse is a parlor game invented by Surrealist painters in 1925.
How does it work? People pass around a folded piece of paper and add drawings to it without looking at the rest. The results have led to melting clocks and surreal dreamscapes.
Each person will start with a piece of paper, and choose to start the game off with a drawing, the beginning of a sentence, or a collage to build upon for a surreal scene.
The game ends when you get your piece of paper back. You’ll take home a chaotically beautiful and collaborative drawing.
30-45min activity to stay creative
