project 2 - title
Chalk
project description
Toyshop will distribute sticks of chalk wrapped with a sheet of symbols and their translations. This object is a set of instructions for a coded language with which we hope to decode the city by providing a simple tool for people to communicate their experience of place directly onto the immediate environment.

profile
Toyshop is a Brooklyn-based collective working towards the democratization of our public spaces through creative forms of productive mischief. Rooting around at the edges of appropriate acts of citizenship we are using every means at our disposal to make a city that instigates our creative impulses and fosters the feral spirit.
