Artisticulate - Total Quality

Mick Kirkby Geddes and I revealed our interactive board game , "Artisticulate", to the crowd at the Art Market Pop-Up on the evening of the 23rd.

4 contestants, all wearing suitable head gear, move round the board picking up art materials and 




spinning the wheel of fortune.  The wheel sends the player back or forward using real life experiences of being an artist.  For example "Your work explodes in the kiln - go back one", "Your exhibition sells out- go forward one" (I'm not sure who experienced their work being burnt to a cinder by marauding Anarchists).


The delectable Emma Kirkby Geddes featured as our very own Debbie Magee.


When the first person bounds over the finish line the board-game aspect of Artisticulate comes to an end. Each player then chooses an object off the bonus shelf, and positions themself infront of one of our unique and eye-catching plinths.  When everyone is present and the atmosphere is super charged with creative juice they have 30 seconds to render the best piece of art they can out of the pieces they have collected.


2 random judges are chosen to work their way along, referring with each other, and choose a winner.  The winners, much to everyone else's envy, win a prize (made of paper mache):



Other examples of the works created:



All very inspiring stuff!

Who knows, maybe some day Artisticulate might be round your ways.......
