Exquisite Corpse Drawing Game
Exquisite corpse is a drawing game that dates back to the Surrealists art movement from the 1920’s. The idea of the game is to create a collaborative work of art without seeing what the other players have added to the drawing.
Materials:
- Drawing Tool of your choice (pen, pencil, etc.)
- Exquisite Corpse Drawing Sheet
Step 1: Print out the exquisite corpse drawing sheet. Fold the paper in thirds.
Step 2: One player draws a head with shoulders in the first section of the paper. Fold the paper over to cover your head drawing and pass the paper to the next player.
The next player draws a body (a torso and arms) in the middle section and then folds the paper over one more time to cover the drawing.
The last player draws the legs and feet in the last section of the paper.
Step 3: Unfold your paper to reveal your exquisite corpse!
The idea of the game is to use your imagination! What kind of interesting characters/monsters/animals can you create?
