Exquisite Corpse

"Exquisite Corpse"

A collaboration with Ken Tywoniw and Joe Votek III ... each doing a third without seeing what the other had done. Much the same way the Surrealists did back in the 30s and 40s when they had too much melting time on their ant infested hands.

First I did the top 1/3 (in NJ), covered it up, sent it to my brother (in AZ) who did the middle. Then he covered it and sent it on to Joe (in AZ), who finished the bottom. (only about an 1/8" of each portion was left showing to allow the next person to continue!)
