the intruder
A storytelling card game for multilingual learning for all generations, playable in the classroom or with family, inviting players to explore the fascinating relationship between text and image and how meaning shifts when different images are paired with different sentences. Through a series of drawings that echo artworks and visual references, the game encourages players to observe, interpret and imagine, while developing both creative and analytical thinking.
The intruder introduces himself into the diverse universes of artists from around the world and invites you to explore them too.

role play
If you are comfortable with role-playing and theatre, form groups or pairs and invent different situations for the same sentence and play them —like in an improvisation exercise — so that its meaning can shift, just like in the images. Choose the tone randomly using the cards below. If you need more inspiration or a hint turn over a card to link the sentence to a concrete place, personality or situation that you can build your scene on. If you don’t feel like playing, you can also describe the situation orally or in writing.
