What Are You Like?

Based on a Victorian parlour game, the exhibition invited 45 people in the public eye to create a self-revealing artwork by illustrating 8 of their favourite things from a list of 12: their favourite animal, book, item of clothing, comfort, food, pastime, place, possession, music, shoes, weather or pet aversion (the thing they love to hate!) The result is a delightfully idiosyncratic exhibition, organised by the House of Illustration, which includes work by illustrators such as Lauren Child, David Shrigley, Posy Simmonds, Glen Baxter, Shirley Hughes, as well as work by musicians, designers, writers and artists.
