Pat Perry Launches 'Liminal Bingo,' a Participatory Photo Treasure Hunt
Detroit artist Pat Perry has unveiled 'Liminal Bingo,' a unique photo scavenger hunt intended for participants from ages five to 105. The initiative encourages individuals to take photographs based on imaginative prompts, such as capturing a handshake with a stranger wearing sunglasses or sending a landscape shot to a loved one. It promotes social interaction and community exploration. To achieve a bingo, participants must complete five prompts consecutively. Submissions are open until August 2026, with the potential for selected works to be showcased at Hashimoto Contemporary in New York during the fall and possibly published in a book. Check the project’s website for more information.
