great title, too!

Ladies and gentlemen, you astound me! Fantastic!

This is awesomely gorgeous! The lady in panel 3 that is missing her face(s) is definite proof that the artists are communicating somehow.... And the bottom panel's reflection of the vee at the top is glorious as is the fact that two of the panels are completely abstract.

Definitely a candidate for the corpse calendar. Thank you all.

I agree: a definite candidate for the Corpse Calendar. This one is just lovely, unnerving... Ah, it's corpse-tacular!

Almost perfect execution! The simple and incredible thematic unity of this piece is very, very striking. Did you peek, Phineas?!

Gabriel at December 18, 2001 5:27 PM

Peek? Sabotage my own game? Never! Actually that was the third or fourth attempt that you see there. I had a hell of a time coming up with something I was happy with and couldn't make any sense out of what I got from Heather. Which always makes such results so much more satisfying.

Phineas at December 18, 2001 6:08 PM

That Heather echoed Matt's floating round element idea without much of a clue is one other thing that astounds me. It's a fabulous corpse, everyone.

Now I know why I was compelled to incorporate little single-celled creatures into my section -- Heather made me do it!

Andrew at December 19, 2001 10:35 AM

I really like this one, on multiple levels. It seems to come very close to the original spirit of the Exquisute Corpse.

I can almost see the folds in the paper.

such a marriage of classic principals. organic and balanced. very nicely done.

jocelyn at December 24, 2001 9:15 AM

i only found it today... wow! it's thrilling to see it complete.

heather at January 10, 2002 11:39 PM

this one really is extraordinary - gracefully surreal... miro, man ray, bunuel and dali couldn't have done better.
