Jeu des 7 horreurs2019 object
44 cards 2 jokers
7 families: war, prostitution, disease, racism, terrorism, pollution, paedophilia.
I was inspired by the game of the seven families, called the game of the 7 horrors, in which the rules are the same but the content differs. Each family evokes the harmful behaviors of our condition. Six cards in a family, each revealing a common word accessible to a child.
Reading this banal word in a serious context conjures up terrifying mental images in the players, and the word “entertainment” is given its full meaning: amusement and detour from our condition.
