Pigtails & Pigeon Wings – Board Game

“Pig Tails and Pigeon Wings” is a board game that shows the causes and effects of critical or small actions that contributed to transforming the neighborhood of Den Dam in Antwerp for how we see it now. To realize it we were inspired by events that happened or could have happened in the past. Investors, social housing, the ring project, artists activating the vacant space of the old slaughterhouse of the city, new housing projects, peripheries, pigeons, rats, and all the pigs and cows that passed through the space, neighborhood actions, small actions, and big moves brings you back and forward in the game.

The game was presented on the portable table “Rotula” during the exhibition Vanishing Past(s) in Archipel in the context of Antwerp Art Weekend.
