In ‘Continuum’, players begin at the centre of the board and start each round by revealing two opposing statements about heritage. These statements form questions which guide players through a conversation about their personal connection with their heritage.  At the end of the game, the players’ answers will be mapped out on the board.

Over 2022 and 2023, Continuum has engaged with local communities at libraries across Tāmaki Makaurau.

Available to hire for exhibitions and events.

Continuum is beautifully hand-crafted by the creator from plywood using laser-cutting and woodworking techniques.

The board design is inspired by family tree diagrams, and antique Chinese tables to draw upon the social significance of the table as a place of gathering and community.
