SECOND DRAWING MARATHON at Ptarmigan • 23./24.04. 2010

a Public School Helsinki event

We decided to have the second all-night Drawing Marathon starting off some hours earlier, so the first participants arrived just after 6 P.M. 'Old hands' returning and new people showing up made for a nice mixture of about 30 people in a time span of approximately 12 hours.

Again we didn't really plan what would happen, and after some quick warm-ups {this time all in the name of dinosaurs and birds}, the narrative went literally all over the place. Some common subjects were there {Eyjafjallajökull's expanding ash cloud for one}, but this time the mixture of details was even more intricate — a whole scope of the curious, crude, precious & poetic.

There were too many stories to do them all justice here, but below some impressions can be found.

Thanks again to all who came and to Ptarmigan for letting us use their project space {with better paper we didn't even have to repaint the walls this time, heh}!
