Do play with food
Do Play with the Food is an interactive game encouraging players to dive in, break standard etiquette, and embrace mannerless behaviour around food.
The game is played on a board of sauces,
condiments and edible sand that are placed on the surface
to create a landscape.
Players use manna balls to navigate the board, or plantain bits - as you wish
Designed for two or more people,
the game does not come with more instructions.
Asked to dive in,
figure out how to score!

“Caroline Suinner’s unruly food spread—an assemblage of gooey, creamy and crumbly bits and pieces, laid out for hands-on engagement, whether to eat or to play with. Playfulness initially faltered against the disciplined atmosphere of the grand art institution, mirroring the very social conditioning Hejazi seeks to “reprogram.” Play had to be practiced again, pushed through internalized constraints, rewiring our capacity for free expression and bringing us back to a place of collective imagination.“
