Bits and Pieces

Bits and Pieces, Co-Creation with Mary-Ann and Lilian

Jan - Apr 2021

Stories Shared By : Mary-Ann & Lilian Stories Collected By : Su Hyun Jung, Eva Egeberg & Lena Tian

This interactive publication was created as part of the Perspectives Program, and in partnership between the Purdy Pavilion long-term care home and Emily Carr University of Art + Design. The book was co-created by Eva, Lena, Sue, Mary-Ann and Lilian. The book contains retellings of some wonderful stories, highlights, moments and anecdotes from Mary-Ann and Lilian's lives. The stories are unpredictable and at times even playful, and the pop-up and interactive illustrations reflect these qualities.

We had 4.5 visits to conduct Mary-Ann and Lilian's marvellous stories and 1.5 visits to listen to feedback on the physical book from their perspectives. In total, 6visits resulted in "Bits and Pieces: Unfolding the Marvelous Adventures of Mary-Ann and Lilian," a co-creation project of three designers and two non-designers.

Together, we selected some stories to put into this publication. We hope people Mary-Ann, Lilian and their family members will have as much fun going through the book as all we had creating it.

Highlighting Our Superhero Activity

Our second Getting to Know activity is called Super Mary-Ann & Super Lilian Activity. We, story conductors, were inspired by My Superhero Identity, which is a children’s exercise building a Superhero story with their creativity. This exercise is simple and easy but still exciting and engaging activity being imaginative. We believed that this activity would bring them to their childhood and create a beautiful world with positive vibes.

How We Played It?

Step 1 : Ask 7 Questions that We Came Out on a Miro Board
Step 2 : Collect their Anwers
Step 3 : By Sharing a Screen, Draw their Superheros on the Miro Board
