At Play 3

At Play 3 (in 2011) explored ideas about making sense of the world and escaping from it, and both the pleasurable and the more sinister aspects of play. While children use play to make sense of the world, adults often use play to escape from it. Both have pleasure ... but play can also have an obsessive, addictive, aggressive or divisive side.

At Play 3 took place at South Hill Park, Bracknell from 16 April to 19 June 2011.
